Pour cream into a large bowl and sift in icing sugar. Lightly whisk to combine.
Grate in zest of both lemon and lime and squeeze in their juices (strain through sieve to avoid any pips).
Whisk cream until it just begins to reach stiff peaks.
Lightly crush 4 biscuits with your fingers and divide into bottom of serving glasses. Reserve the fifth biscuit for the garnish.
Lightly fold in lemon curd to syllabub mixture then spoon into glasses.
If you have time at this stage, you can refrigerate the syllabubs for a couple of minutes to help them set.
Use a grater to finely grate over the remaining biscuit and serve.
