History of the dish

Italy

Origin: Italy

Zuppa inglese (lit. 'English soup') is an Italian dessert with layers of custard and sponge cake dipped in liqueur, perhaps derived from trifle. To make zuppa inglese, either sponge cake or sponge fingers are dipped in alchermes, a bright red, extremely aromatic Italian herbal liqueur.
