<![CDATA[Recommendation for Tiramisu]]>It will be Mrs BigD’s birthday soon. She never had tiramisu before, so looking to get one for her. But since it’s just a small celebration in the family, prefer to get slices instead of a whole cake.


So where do you get your favourite tiramisu??

Mrs Ang:
You can also find this cake shop at basement of Plaza Singapura and Tampines 1. Heard their cakes are nice and you see more of their cakes at this link http://www.pokkafood.com.sg/gauche/index.php

Thanks for the link, Mrs Ang.

From what little of that tiramisu I had, I have good faith their other cakes will be as yummy! :drool:

BigDevil:
:oops: Sorry to all who recommended different places for tiramisu. As it turned out, we didn't go to any of the places recommended.


We ended up in Suntec for lunch, and found a stall selling tiramisu. So we just bought it there.

The stall is called Rive Gauche. It's in the foyer area of Tower 3/4, outside of Carrefour.

As I'm afraid the kids will not like the taste of tiramisu, we bought 2 cupcakes from Crystal Jade as well. Here's a picture of the tiramisu and the cupcakes.
http://postimage.org/image/1zejq1hes/

The tiramisu was delicious! Creamy and cheesy, and the taste was not too overwhelming. In fact, DD loved it so much, she left her cupcake untouched! So ended up I only had a bite of the tiramisu while DW and DD shared all of it. DS was not the adventurous kind though. :lol:

The small piece of tiramisu cost $6...hope DD did not like it so much that she request a big one for her birthday. 🙏 😉

duriz:
But you guys!

Kahlúa is coffee-flavored liqueur.
It's alcohol content is at least 20%.
Given that's not as high as rum/brandy.

I usually make 2 different batches. For kids and non-kopi drinkers, just omit the coffee and kahlua. Did that when the girls were much younger. Also, I find replacing the coffee/espresso with cocoa/milo is just as good too. The mascapone cheese, sugar and cocoa/milo blends nicely with each other and I find that the taste it not lost.

Now that the girls are older, I add a bit a kahlua for the taste and oomph factor. Of course not too much lah to make them \"mar-bok\" 😉

Know that...that's why I said that lady friend killed 2 birds with 1 stone by using Kahlua to replace BOTH coffee and rum.

But since she didn't use coffee, she used quite a fair amount of Kahlua to soak up the lady fingers. Definitely more than the 3 tablespoons which the recipe called for. Maybe that's why it gave me a warm and fuzzy feeling after eating?? 😉

BigD you make for Mrs BigD lah. Not difficult. Homemade one can cater to one's taste summore. Alcoholic ones for you and the wifey, non alcoholic ones for the kids. 😉

In our household of non-coffee drinkers, I will have to figure out how to make coffee first!! :lol:

I like their desserts. They serve per cup and do take aways. Their apple pie is nice too.

Happy eating! :lol:
Didn't know they serve good desserts. Are they at the cold storage side or the other side of shop houses?

duriz:
Basic Tiramisu Recipe

about 20 lady's fingers bisuits, dip layer & spread twice cover
2 shots (2 ounces; 60 mL) prepared espresso mix & chill
1/2 cup (120 mL) prepared coffee
1 cup (240 mL) heavy whipping cream whisk to stiff peaks fold
1 lb. (455 g) mascarpone cheese mix
1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
3 tablespoons (44 mL) rum (or brandy)
cocoa powder
shavings of unsweetened dark chocolate
I like to think I make a mean Tiramisu for the family. My kids and dh love it!! :love: Actually it's about the only dessert I make :oops:

To tweak duriz's recipe so that it is kids-friendly, I:

replace the coffee with hot chocolate (or milo if u don't have hot chocolate)
replace the rum or brandy with 2-3 tablespoons of kahlua (liquer)

It's a wonderful dessert and you can easily make that with the kids on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Chill the tiramisu in the fridge and you have a perfect dessert for family dinner. 😉
