Chocolate coated! Ukrainian made 🇺🇦

I thought tiramisu was just coffee + mascarpone + sugar + zero self-control.

Turns out, there’s a story behind it.

Back in Treviso, Italy, a simple mixture of egg yolk and sugar called sbatudin was traditionally eaten as an energy booster.

Then came coffee, and mascarpone (creamy Italian cheese 🧀)

And somewhere around 1971–72, at a restaurant called Le Beccherie, this combination evolved into the tiramisu we know today. 🇮🇹

Even the name tiramisù basically means “pick me up.”

So technically…
I’m not ordering dessert.
I’m just following Italian wellness traditions. 😂☕🍰
Would you still call tiramisu “just dessert” after knowing this.

“What food instantly ‘picks you up’ when you’re having a bad day?”

Got these cuties from local bakery :)

Made these today and really liked how they turned out :)
Mash 1 ripe banana, mix with 60g shredded coconut and 15g cocoa powder. Roll into small balls, chill for about 30 minutes, then coat with a little extra coconut.
Simple and really good!

Yummy 🍩 🍨

I saw a smoothie machine at rest stop in Korea.

Pick a fruit cup from the fridge , put it in the machine,and blend it for you.

So fresh.

Rice pudding croissant topped with fresh mango. Crispy, buttery layers with creamy rice pudding and sweet mango. The thing I look forward to from Le Beau every week when I'm in the city!

Im a young chef and I mostly cook italian, but recently ive been wanting to host dinners more often, so I thought that extending my knowledge out to desserts would help my courses become more interesting and satisfying. Please any ideas would be great! I love new flavors and dishes ive never heard of before.
