In saucepan over medium heat, stir together evaporated milk, sugar, cardamom and orange peel until sugar is dissolved; bring to simmer. Remove from heat; cover and let stand for 20 minutes.
Strain out solids and return milk mixture to saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin over top; let stand for 5 minutes.
Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is completely dissolved; remove from heat.
Stir in buttermilk. Divide among four 3/4 cup/175 mL lightly oiled ramekins or custard cups; cover and refrigerate until set, about 4 hours, or for up to 1 day.
