Critical Success Points

  • Properly separate eggs with no yolk in whites.
  • Whip egg whites and yolks to correct stages (ribbon and stiff peaks).
  • Fold ingredients gently to avoid deflating batter and cream.
  • Do not overwork or re-pipe ladyfinger batter.
  • Bake ladyfingers until set but not dry.
  • Cool ladyfingers completely before assembly.
  • Soak ladyfingers with coffee just enough—not too much.
  • Chill tiramisu for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight).

Safety Warnings

  • This recipe uses raw eggs. Use only the freshest eggs from a trusted source, or use pasteurized eggs to reduce risk of foodborne illness.
  • If serving to pregnant people, young children, elderly, or immunocompromised, use pasteurized eggs.
  • Be cautious with hot sugar syrup and oven use.
