Enjoy eating Tiramisu? Here's everything you need to know about this delicious dessert

Roberto "Loli" Linguanotto, a renowned Italian pastry chef credited for creating the beloved dessert Tiramisu, passed away at the age of 81. Tiramisu was originally called "Tirame Sù," a name that translates to "pick me up" in Italian.

Loli's name will always be associated with the decadent coffee-flavoured dessert that first emerged in the early 1980s while he was working at Alle Beccherie, a renowned restaurant in Northern Italy.

The dessert has several origin stories, including one that suggests Linguanotto accidentally dropped mascarpone cheese into a bowl of sugar and eggs and then Alba di Pillo Campeol, the wife of the restaurant's owner, allegedly added ladyfingers soaked in espresso to the mixture, creating what later became a staple at Le Beccherie.
Tiramisu is primarily made with six ingredients: eggs, savoiardi (ladyfingers), sugar, mascarpone, coffee, and cocoa. A few years later, in 1983, the Tiramisu recipe was published in a Treviso gastronomic magazine for the first time and quickly gained global fame.
