  1. No offense but Tiramisu sucks. My aunt came to visit us from Italy and she brought her son some Tiramisu. I took a bite and it was just too sugary for me. And coffee in pastry is not my thing. I guess it an acquired taste.

  2. Oh, I know the temptation!
    Generally, delayed-gratification is no problem for me, but waiting for tiramisu in the ref can be a challenge!

  3. I'm really surprised by the not beating the eggs too much part. My go to recipe separates the egg and makes a meringue to fold into the mixture (the cream is whipped is as well). I will say I'm glad that it's only mascarpone. I've had some were they use cream cheese instead, and I had a hard time finishing it 😔

  4. I would like to make this, but I would need to make it at least a few times, possibly a lot more before I would get it anywhere near an acceptable dish, as I result I would gain kilos! Probably better just to pay for it at a restaurant when an occasion arrives 🙂

  5. In all my years of making tiramisu but never like this this is just a showpiece you don't need a store-bought chocolate cage, you build it later by lair in a square pan😊

  6. Disappointing. There is no need for cream as the mascarpone is very rich and does not need to be enriched. To be fair, the presentation is nice.
