It marked their twentieth consecutive Test win.
The Red Roses set a blistering pace to the match, scoring inside the opening four minutes, as Natasha Hunt found Sarah McKenna on the unattended side of a ten metre rolling maul for the easiest of tries. Zoe Harrison added the extras from the touchline.
Lydia Thompson bagged England's second score ten minutes later, coming off the back of a Vickii Cornborough charge down turnover inside the Italian 22, Helena Rowland pounced on the loose ball and immediately attacked the right flank, sucking in defenders before providing the assist for Thompson to score her 39th international try.
Simon Middleton's charges dominated at set piece, and it was the catalyst behind their third try, a trademark driving maul taken by hooker Lark Davies on the 20-minute mark to make it 17-0.
The forwards continued to shine; Shaunagh Brown powered over from close range moments later for her first international try, and the bonus point score, before Alex Matthews scored in similar fashion as half time neared. Both were successfully converted by Harrison to make it 31-0 at the break.
England's clinical play was clear to see in the half time stats: making 253 more metres, 44 more carries, 94 more passes, while boasting 70% possession.
