For this version of the baked Alaska, make a frozen parfait with lemon curd, which will prevent it from melting too quickly at the table. The genoise cake is soaked in limoncello syrup, which makes it super moist even after being frozen. The recipe may include many steps, but almost all of them can be taken care of up to two weeks in advance. You’ll just have to brown the Italian meringue with a kitchen torch on the day—and cause a sensation.
