How to prepare custard for tiramisu?
Custard is a fundamental component of this tiramisu. To prepare it, you’ll need milk, egg yolks, sugar, corn starch (or flour), lemon zest, or vanilla. Mix these ingredients in a saucepan and cook over medium-low heat until the cream thickens. Once cooled, it is ready to be used in the tiramisu.
Can I replace Alchermes with another liqueur?

How far in advance can I prepare tiramisu?
Tiramisu improves with time, so you can prepare it in advance. However, it is advisable to prepare it at least 4-6 hours before serving, or even the day before, so that the flavors blend well and the dessert reaches the right consistency.
Can I store tiramisu in the fridge?
