Additional Notes

Tips for Making Tiramisu:

  • Coffee Considerations: For a deeper coffee flavour, use strong brewed filter coffee or a combination of coffee and rum or brandy.
  • Ladyfinger Love: Don’t over-soak the ladyfingers! They should be dipped quickly to absorb some coffee without becoming mushy.
  • Mascarpone Magic: Use good quality mascarpone cheese for the best results. If it seems too stiff, whisk in a tablespoon of heavy cream to loosen it slightly.
  • Chilling is Key: Allow the Tiramisu to chill for at least 3 hours, or ideally overnight, for the flavours to meld and the ladyfingers to soften.
  • Presentation Perfection: Dust with good quality cocoa powder before serving for a classic touch. You can also garnish with chocolate shavings, fresh berries, or a mint sprig for an extra flourish.
  • Leftovers?: Tiramisu can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Enjoy it cold, straight from the refrigerator
