Slice the loaf into thick slices, and place the syrup in the baking pan. Place
the bread on top of the syrup.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, vanilla, Grand Marnier and
salt. Pour evenly over the bread. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
In the morning, leave the casserole at room temperature while the oven preheats.
