Classic tiramisu, made from ladyfingers, eggs, sugar, mascarpone, espresso, alcohol, and cocoa, can become repetitive. To liven up this traditional dessert, especially in summer, one can add berries. This can be done simply by layering fresh berries or through a slightly more involved method of maceration where fruits like strawberries rest with sugar to enhance their flavor without lemon juice, preventing undesired flavor clashes. It is recommended to place berries above the mascarpone layer, safeguarding the crispness of ladyfingers. Creative variations can also include different liqueurs instead of espresso for a playful take on the classic recipe.
A layer of raspberries (either fresh or macerated without acid) is an excellent pairing with tiramisu, as are strawberries.
Instead of an espresso mix, dip the lady fingers in a lemon simple syrup spiked with limoncello, crème de casiss, or a raspberry liqueur like Chambord.
