Check to see that the icecream block is very
firm. Make strips to line the bottom and sides of bread box. Keep the base strip
much longer than box. This way sides of the strips that hang out of the box can
help pull out the block later. Place a single layer of icecream wafers at bottom
to cover base. Run cake & biscuit crumbs, butter, cocoa, sugar in mixie for
a few seconds. They should just mix well, do not overbeat or it will form a
lump. Spread 1/2 mixture on top of biscuit layer. Press down gently and evenly.
Mark 4 equal sections along length of horizontal block. Cut one section
carefully with a large sharp knife. Place carefully over crumb base. Spread out
cherries over icecream layer. Sprinkle some leftover crumbs on them .Place next
layer of icecream over it. Spread orange segments and sprinkle some crumb
mixture. Place next layer of icecream over it. Spread strawberries and remaining
crumbs mixture. Place final layer of icecream over it. Arrange remaining
icecream wafers to cover top of icecream. Place one more strip of butter paper
over it to cover wafers. Set in freezer for 2-3 hours till well combined.
To serve:
Remove upper layer of butter paper.Place a
serving long dish over mouth of box. Invert with a quick motion. Hold side
strips down with both hands. Or keep weights to hold them down. Gently pry up
the inverted box, holding down strips. Gently remove all butter paper strips.
Cut into individual pieces with sharp knife. Take care to cut right through to
base. Lift with spatula and place on individual dishes. Pour a little strawberry
sauce over it. Serve immediately.
