Bake 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Cool completely. Reserve 15 to 20 tablespoons of frosting; reserve the rest. Spread frosting over cooled cake.
To make the icing: In a medium bowl, stir together 1/2 cup buttermilk, 3/4 cup buttermilk and remaining 1 cup frosting. Combine 2 cups orange zest and 3/4 cup water until smooth; stir in bag of frosting. Fold in nuts. Press into a tightly baked and cooled cake. Knead just enough to evenly coat, but not press down. To assemble scape: Lay cake in pan, rising 1 inch from water a few centimeters above warm water. Using wire needle, poke holes in the cake with a utility knife. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Keep cake covered at room temperature. Let cool 30 minutes in the pan before cutting into squares or serving with frosting.
