Not 100% exact. What we call "zuppa inglese", which literally translates into "English soup" but shares no DNA with a proper soup, is a layered cold dessert made with a sponge cake or savoiardi biscuits base soaked in alkermes (a red liquor) covered with layers of custard cream (crème anglaise in French or crema pasticcera in Italian) and chocolate custard (a custard cream with cocoa powder mixed in it); no fruit as in the sherry trifle.That’s nothing Miko. In Italian, sherry trifle is called English Soup…..

Never tried that, but think I would love it Andy. It seems pretty close to trifle. I’ve just tried the ice cream version, which is delicious! It’s probably the liquor that gives it the trifle flavourNot 100% exact.
