Tiramisu...

[Mollie85]

(Lighthearted)

Aibu to think the tiramisu is the best dessert in the planet by miles? All that yummy squishy goodness, the marscapone, the shot of coffee, the taste of alcohol....

My family think I am strange. My mum said "we didn't raise you to like things like tiramisu". I think she thinks I have ideas above my station....
We were bought up on neon food - fishfingers, chips and angel delight.

In my 36 years on the planet I have only ever met one other who likes this manna, this taste from heaven. Conversely, she was Italian.

Any things you like and find yourself in the minority?

(Just at specialist waiting room and bored )

Also a tiramisu lover. Have to confess I think it is one of my favourite desserts, the other is warm cherry pie with just a little bit of whipped cream.

You are totally wrong, it's like coffee flavoured slime. Apple and blackberry crumble with vanilla ice cream is the best

I'm with you...love love love tiramisu. Though I'm the only one I know who does!

Banoffee pie

Goose - the humble crumble is indeed a strong contender, but does it have the panache or prestige of a good tiramisu?

I think not...

It is divine. My DSis makes an amazing one in wine glasses that has generous amounts of booze in it. And now I want some..

YANBU, if it's on the menu anywhere it's a guarantee I'll order it

It is the best! Mmmmmmmmmmm

Banoffee pie I'm sorry but I think we just hit a new low (boak)

I love tiramisu even though I hate coffee

I am so pleased I have found like minded people - do we need a specialist club with a secret handshake and a password? Or will we just find each other in the chiller aisle in the supermarket?

Yes. All the way. I had a great home made one once in the heart of Pisa. Went really well with the carafe of wine

I love the creamy bit, but I'm disappointed with the spongy bit. And some versions of tiramisu are awful. Supermarket ones seem to use some sort of industrial alcohol.

I love it too - when it's done well.

Oh I'm in - it's only the thought of popping to the co-op afterwards for coffee flavoured yumminess getting me through this examination

I love tiramisu. I saw some in M and S yesterday--seems to be new (I've never seen them before).

I also love their chocolate cheesecake (the single slice sold with the sandwiches/lunch stuff).

I would eat it every day. It's the best!

Homemade/good restaurant tiramisu is absolute heaven!

Agree that supermarket ones sometimes taste like sludge with industrial alcohol.

You're right, it's the best.

My DH makes an awesome tiramisu. We are on another diet

Tiramisu is my favorite dessert too. Now, OP, what shop bought one do you think is best? Mine is Asda's, even better than M&S, I fined theirs a bit too thick cream wise. I know the Asda one's sponge has more liquid but I like it, more flavour.
Have you tried Tesco's lemoncello? Oow, I am now undecided whether I like it even more, now that's saying something.

Tiramisu is literally my favourite thing of all time, am on a diet at the moment and am feeling bad as have just nicked three rolos off my youngest child but if there was a vat of tiramisu in front of me now, I'd willingly pile on the 10 lbs I've lost so far!!
