  Made day ahead for guests and they loved it. never used Limoncello before and this will now become a staple dessert for us. Great after a heavy pie and very easy to make.

  Absoutly divine, decided to use a baloon whisk and glad I did as though it took a little while to thicken the result was perfect. I think I would serve with raspberries next time and maybe some lemon wafer biscuits.

  Made this for a dinner party and it went down a storm!! Put some raspberries soaked in limoncello in the bottom of the glass and put the syllabub on top! Will definitely make again as was incredibly easy and VERY delicious!

  Made this for a dinner party of 8. Was lovely and light to round off the meal (goat's cheese souffle starter followed by Thai beef curry and coconut rice - all recipes from bbcgoodfood). I took the advice from above and put some raspberries tossed in Limoncello into the glass first, and then topped up with the syllabub. Made ahead in the afternoon, stored in the fridge until serving later that night. Everything stayed set. Really lovely taste and had clean glasses all round!

  This is gorgeous and so easy -- and I definitely recommend the addition of raspberries which takes it to the next level!

  Easy, dreamy and looks like you slaved over it for a long time. Just make sure it is not turning out too sour, so do taste in between.

  Made this dessert for foodie friends and they absolutely loved it. I added an internal layer of crushed amaretti biscuits as well as those on top. I thought about adding some frozen raspberries but as they can be quite soggy when defrosted, I wondered if the juice would affect the cream so left them out. The dish really didn't need anything extra and its simplicity was just lovely, especially after a rich main course.

  Making this for the 2nd time as it went down a treat the first time I did it. A nice, light refreshing end to a meal. Didn't change a thing. Served it in glass espresso cups and it looked so cute!

  So quick and easy to make. Lovely light end to a meal but still feels like a treat. Followed advice above and put raspberries with a touch of limoncello in glasses before topping with syllabub - definitely recommend!
