    | 1. First, make the cake. | 2. Preheat oven to 350F; have ready an ungreased 13x9 oblong pan. | 3. Using a flour sifter, sift together flour and salt, then return to sifter and set aside. | 4. In large mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy; sprinkle with cream of tartar and beat until soft peaks form. | 5. Gradually add half of the sugar to the whites, beating until stiff glossy peaks form. | 6. In another large mixing bowl, beat egg yolks and remaining sugar until thickened; stir in orange rind and juice. | 7. Fold this into the egg whites. | 8. Sift flour, a third at a time, over the egg mixture, gently folding in each addition. | 9. Place this batter into the 13x9 pan and bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until spongy to a light touch. | 10. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn cake out onto a wire rack to let it cool completely (if possible, wrap and store for 1 day; cake can also be frozen for up to 2 months). | 11. When ready, make the filling and decoration. | 12. Hull and slice about one-quarter of the strawberries. | 13. Whip the cream; stir icing sugar and vanilla into whipped cream. | 14. Using a long serrated knife, cut cake horizontally in half and put one layer, cut side up, on a large serving tray. | 15. Spread with about one-third of the whipped cream mixture and cover with a single layer of sliced strawberries. | 16. Carefully put the top layer, cut side down, over the berries. | 17. Spread remaining cream over top and sides. | 18. Now, cut the remaining berries in half and arrange in overlapping rows, cut side down, forming 2 side bands and a maple leaf in centre. | 19. Use any remaining berries as a garnish around the sides of the cake. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
