July’s Special: Florian Tiramisu Parfait

August 12, 2016

A national culinary treasure from the Apennine Peninsula, tiramisu has become a classic among Italian desserts. And while you may not understand the Italian language, you can only delight in the unforgettable taste of tiramisu. This treat delivers multiple layers of enjoyment – the rich aroma of soft cheese, the piquant bitterness of cocoa, and the mellow smoothness of coffee and liqueur – leaving a varied, yet lingering taste on the palate. Little wonder it has become one of the most popular desserts in restaurants and cafes around the world.

As one of the oldest coffeehouses in Europe, boasting an illustrious history of almost 300 years, Caffè Florian uses only the highest quality ingredients to create the truly authentic flavor of tiramisu. Florian’s pastry chef masterfully added his own twists to the traditional tiramisu recipe to create two Florian specialties: Florian’s Modern Tiramisu and Florian Rose Tea Tiramisu.

Florian Rose Tea Tiramisu

Cake of the Month: Florian Tiramisu Parfait

For July, Florian’s pastry chefs have ingeniously created the Florian Tiramisu Parfait. As the name implies, Caffè Florian has once again masterfully transformed the classic recipe with a parfait filling, the chilled texture of which undoubtedly adds a refreshing twist to the original recipe.

Take a nibble, and slightly press down with the tip of your tongue; you will be instantly captivated by the aroma of the parfait as it mingles with the other rich fillings. You will discover a slight bitterness accompanying an undercurrent of sweetness as well as the scent of liqueur, all providing a unique experience for the senses and creating a new standard of excellence in the art of dessert making.

Florian cordially invites you to enjoy a cup of coffee and a Tiramisu Parfait, and while away a relaxing afternoon here with us. With this delectable sweet treat, Florian offers not merely a staple of traditional Italian high tea, but also allows customers to experience one of the culinary charms of Italy.
