Put the Perfetto Lemon and sugar syrup into a shallow bowl.
One at a time, dip half of the sponge fingers into the bowl and soak for 10 seconds on each side. Place the soaked biscuits into your chosen serving dish.
Spread over half of the lemon curd in a thin layer to cover the biscuits. Then spoon half of the whipped cream mixture on top and spread out so there’s an even layer.
Repeat, dunking the biscuits and layering them with the curd and finishing with a final layer of cream, spooning it on to create ripples.
