My mom wrote this cookbook and I have to admit that I like her orange syrup much better. She would make it for her Baklahvah, but I would use it on pancakes!! BTW - har name is Viviane ALSCHECH Miner, not Bicheck. Wonder where that name came from.

If you are a butter lover, you will LOVE this recipe. However, I think the recipe can be made with far less butter and still be fabulous. Be prepared to get cramps in your wrists from all of the whisking/stirring, but it's worth it.
