Tiramisu parfait is a wonderful Dessert for any menu. It can be very simply prepared and is always well received. The frozen version has the advantage that it is a change from the usual tiramisu and due to the low temperatures in the freezer the Salmonella risk reduced is.

I use for my recipe a Sponge cake base, which is ready in 15 minutes. It is one of my favorite recipes and I never buy sponge cake because this recipe is so easy, fast and delicious!

Of course you can also use purchased Sponge fingers use. The Sponge cake base has the advantage that it can also be used with deep temperatures still soft is and well for cutting out dessert glasses lets. You do not have to make layers with the ladyfingers and you could also try to mix them crumbled under the ice cream mass. If you have tested this, please report in the comments if it worked.

Tips

  • If you use ladyfingers instead of sponge cake, it is better to layer the tiramisu parfait in a square mold. Alternatively, you can crumble the ladyfingers in a bag and fill them into glasses as a layer.
  • Vanilla sugar make your own is very easy and better than store-bought. Simply a scraped vanilla pod* to 200 g sugar in an airtight container. Many commercial "vanilla sugars" are not with real vanilla, but with vanillin displaced.

Other Dessert ideas like a Prince Pückler ice cream sandwich, Melon ice cream in its own shell or a Bee sting ice cream scoop can also be found on my blog.
