Introducing: Simple Tiramisu Cupcakes!
It’s coffee and cake, all in one handy package!
Our Simple Tiramisu Cupcakes are something really different! While traditional tiramisu is made with very light finger-shaped biscuits dipped in coffee and topped with a whipped mixture of eggs, sugar, and mascarpone cheese, we have totally simplified the whole process down to these delicious cupcakes. These little delights are like having coffee and a cake all in one package. How convenient is this for the new-age folk, eating with one hand and mobile phone in the other?
There’s a Secret Inside these Cup Cakes!
Just one bite into these Tiramisu cupcakes will reveal a very delicious secret! The inside is moist and billowing with that fantastic coffee taste that makes tiramisu so unique. After these cupcakes are cooked and while they’re still warm, we make a hollow in each of the cupcakes. Then tip in a 2 tsp shot of espresso. The effect of adding the espresso is nore than just taste, it moistens the cake too, making it super slurp-worthy!
Make a Strong Finish!
To finish it off, we fill the cupcake with buttercream mixture and pipe on top for a fancy finish. A gentle sprinkle of grated chocolate on top makes these insta-worthy cakes taste even better than they look!
So now, there’s a new, simple and fast way to enjoy the traditional tiramisu taste in a handy lunch pack-able format!
