Dip the ladyfingers in the syrup and limoncello mixture and create a layer on the bottom of a baking dish.
Cover the soaked ladyfingers with a layer of cream, then make another layer of ladyfingers soaked in the limoncello syrup and cover with another layer of cream.Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.
Meanwhile, mix the grated zest of two organic lemons with two tablespoons of sugar in a small bowl.
At serving time, decorate your limoncello tiramisu with the sugared lemon zest.
