Tiramisu is probably the most beloved Italian dessert among anyone with a sweet tooth, and it's easy to see why: it's a delicious mix of textures and flavors. It's also very easy to make and has the added advantage of requiring no baking.

Despite being a fairly modern recipe, with its origins in the Veneto region in the 1950s, it has become a classic that's a must on restaurant menus everywhere.

There are many variations on the classic recipe and many ways of presenting it, but all of them use the delicious Savoiardi ladyfingers as a base, light and fluffy with a delicate flavour and a crunchy topping.
