    I forgot to say another thing. In Italy there are many recipes of "Zuppa
    Inglese". Every region has a different recipe. Some "Zuppe inglesi" are made
    with chocolate only. Others use cream and liqueur. Other use biscuits
    instead of "Pan di Spagna"
    The recipe I will give you is with Pan di Spagna, liqueur (alchermes),
    chocolate, cream and whipped cream.
    A question: if whipped cream is "cream", how do you call the Cream (the
    yellow one made with eggs). How can one distinguish them in a recipe??

    Pandora, for what it's worth, I've never seen a substance: 'yellow one made

    recipe as the "Cream mixture."

    In this case, I believe the "cream" is actually a type of custard,
    something like "Creme Anglaise".

    In this recipe I don't see the "cocciniglia" (cochineal) which gives the red
    colour to the liqueur!!! It is very important ingredient!

    Well, it may be important for the appearance, but not for the taste.

    Nathalie in Switzerland, as long as it tastes good, it looks good....
