Pave - Line an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan with a double layer of wax paper which extends over each edge of the pan. Set aside. In a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, bring milk to a simmer. Add bittersweet chocolate. Stir until mixture is smooth.
Add sugar, butter and cocoa, and whisk until completely dissolved. Do not allow this mixture to boil. When smooth, strain into medium bowl; add orange flavoring and cool. In a small heat-proof cup, sprinkle gelatin over 3 tablespoons cold water and allow mixture to soften 3 minutes. Microwave on high for 20 seconds and allow to stand for 2 minutes or until granules are completely dissolved. Blend into chocolate mixture; set aside. Beat cream in a chilled bowl with chilled beaters. Cool chocolate mixture to room temperature; fold in whipped cream. Pour into loaf pan; freeze 6 hours overnight. Yields 16 slices.

 Raspberry Sauce - Process undrained berries and orange juice in processor or blender until smooth. Strain. In a small saucepan, blend sugar, cornstarch and strained berries. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and continue stirring until sauce thickens. Remove from heat; cool. Makes 3 cups. To Serve: Remove from freezer 20 minutes before serving. Place 2-3 tablespoons raspberry sauce on each plate. Slice with a clean knife dipped in warm water and place a slice on each plate. Garnish with orange zest, and whole berries.
