Classic Italian Tiramisu Cake Recipe

Barbara Felicità Lucchini
This classic Italian tiramisu cake recipe is a baked, layered version of traditional tiramisu, made with soft sponge cake soaked in espresso and filled with a rich, creamy mascarpone mixture. Instead of ladyfingers, this cake uses light sponge cake layers, creating a more structured and elegant dessert that’s perfect for celebrations.
Unlike the classic no-bake tiramisu, this Italian tiramisu cake is baked in the oven and then assembled into a beautiful layer cake that slices cleanly and looks stunning on the table.
