Instructions
To make the fresh whipped topping
  1. In a clean and cold bowl, add in your chilled heavy cream. Begin whipping on medium speed and slowly add in your 2-3 tbsp sugar and orange zest. Switch speed to high and whip until medium-firm peaks are formed. Spoon into an air tight container and refrigerate until ready to serve.
To make the Strawberry Coulis
  1. In a small-medium sauce pan add in your berries, 3-4 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp orange zest, lemon juice, and 1-2 fresh mint leaves. Place over a medium-low flame and cook until reduced and thick, stirring occasionally. Amount should reduce slightly, and mixture should be thick and deep red in color. Place in an air tight container and refrigerate until ready to serve.
