Introduction
Tiramisu, Italy’s beloved coffee-infused dessert, is no stranger to reinvention. But when it collides with the deep, buttery richness of Brittany’s signature salted caramel, something magical happens.
This Salted Caramel Tiramisu is a decadent fusion that celebrates two culinary powerhouses—Italy’s finesse and Brittany’s indulgence.
A Tale of Two Regions
At its heart, tiramisu is a celebration of contrasts: bitter coffee, sweet mascarpone, and cocoa’s gentle dusting.
With the addition of salted caramel—a hallmark of Breton gastronomy—the dessert gains a new layer of richness.
Salted caramel (caramel au beurre salé) hails from Brittany, where the region’s salted butter and rich dairy meet slow-cooked sugar to create a luxurious and comforting flavor.
The Recipe: Layers of Indulgence
This version remains true to the structure of classic tiramisu but adds a homemade salted caramel sauce folded into the mascarpone cream.
The ladyfingers are briefly soaked in espresso, offering just enough bitterness to balance the sweetness.
Every bite combines silky mascarpone, whipped cream, and buttery caramel, finished with a dusting of cocoa for a light crunch.
