Zuppa Inglese

(Italian)

sponge cake, alchermes, custard

It is an Italian dessert layering custard and sponge cake, perhaps derived from trifle. To make Zuppa Inglese, sponge cake or ladyfingers are dipped in Alchermes, a bright red, extremely aromatic Italian herb liqueur. They are then alternated with layers of crema pasticciera, a thick egg custard cooked with a large piece of lemon zest.
