Version three
Other versions are more interesting. One says it originated in Silje, in the province of Tuscany in western Italy, where the Duke of Medici visited in the 19th century and became enamored with a local paste-like dessert, which the residents named "the Duke's zuppadel duca" in honor of him. The inhabitants named it "zuppadel duca" (the Duke's sweet soup) in honor of his visit to Siena. Subsequently, the Duke of Italy introduced the dessert to Florence in the north, where it became a favorite of the English intellectuals stationed there, and was renamed "Englishman's Sweet Soup" and brought back to England, where it became popular in tandem with Italy. Siena's desserts were also introduced to the large northeastern Italian cities of Treviso and Venice. Today, these two cities are best known for their river canals, frescoes and tiramisu, but there is a gap in the explanation of how the "duke's sweet soup" evolved into Tiramisu.
