Tiramisu

Learn to make LaCasereccia's delicate Tiramisu

Lorenzo’s Tiramisu When Lorenzo was a boy he and his friends decided they would have a tiramisu feast. They didn’t eat all day so they could save themselves for a delicious tiramisu later in the day. Of course, none of them knew how to make tiramisu, so they headed around to Nonna’s house. Nonna when faced with four starving boys was angry but after much pleading they convinced her to make a tiramisu with their help! Lorenzo still has the same passion for tiramisu, but now he doesn’t need Nonna’s help. The one pictured we ate for breakfast. He hopes you enjoy his recipe as much as we all do!
