๐จ๐ปโ๐ณ Tips
Tiramisu is the most emblematic dessert of Italian cuisine. It is served cold and it is adored for its creaminess and bitter sweet taste. The perfect mixture of contrasts in each layer make this dessert a true delight for your palate.
- How to serve Tiramisu: Use cacao powder as a sprinkle, or decorate the surface with coffee beans covered in dark chocolate. If you want a fruity finish, it is beautiful and refreshing with candied orange peel or fresh orange zest.
- Tiramisu with fruit: For a tasty and summery variety, replace the coffee with rum-flavored fruit syrup. After arranging the tiramisu, use fresh strawberries or raspberries on top, these go well with the rich "mascarpone" cream.
- If you like coffee flavoured desserts, try our Vegan Coffee Custard. It is soft and creamy and works perfectly in birthday cakes and pastries.
๐ฅซ Storage
This tiramisu without mascarpone or eggs can be kept in the fridge wrapped in foil or covered with an air-tight lid for 3 days.

Is it right with 16grams of baking soda for the sheet??
Hi Steph, yes this is correct. You just need 16 grams of baking soda to make the vegan sponge cake. ๐ Let us know if you need any help!
Hi Nico, I wanted to let you know that the ingredients list should specify Baking Powder, not Baking Soda. I made the cake with the baking soda and it was inedible. I looked at other sponge cake recipes and noticed they all call for Baking Powder. I also noticed that in your instructions, it specifies Baking Powder correctly. I made a second sponge cake with the Powder and the whole dish turned out beautifully!
Hi Sherrell, thanks so much for letting us know, and for the very kind comment ๐ I'm happy the tiramisu turned out well at the end โค๏ธ
