Recipe: Tiramisu
A perfect treat for changing seasons
Tiramisu is a no-bake Italian dessert that tastes much more complicated than it is. Made with espresso-dipped ladyfingers layered with a sweet, creamy mascarpone cream.
When individually portioned (either in a single-serving container or after being cut into neat slices) the smooth, slightly porous surface of this dessert is the perfect canvas for a Ripples print.
For best results with your customized dessert choose a design with bold colors and thick lines so it stands out on your dessert.
