Our local and expert guide will take you on this sweet journey to taste all the most popular and delicious dessert from all over the country!
In Ancient Rome they mosty used honey and cheese to prepare their cakes, often served with wine at the end of their banquet. They used to call desserts Secundae Mensae. Sugar was unknown until the Crusades and it is only at the end of the Middle Ages and after the discovery of the New World that will beused more and more in pastries preparations.
In more recent times new desserts were created and became very famous such as Tiramisù and Zuppa Inglese. The mix of cheese such as Mascarpone, coffee, liqueurs and other local ingredients gave this cakes a special flavour and worldwide fame.
