What is Tiramisù?

Tiramisù is a classic Italian dessert, that believed to have originated in the Veneto region of Italy, specifically in Treviso, during the late 1960s or early 1970s. The name "tiramisù" meaning "lift me up" in Italian, reflects its invigorating ingredients—coffee, mascarpone cheese, and cocoa. The dessert gained fame through the Le Beccherie restaurant in Treviso. Tiramisù's combination of soaked ladyfingers, creamy mascarpone filling, and a dusting of cocoa has made it a beloved treat worldwide, inspiring numerous variations while remaining a staple of Italian cuisine.
