Tropical Tiramisu
Give your regular tiramisu a tropical twist by swapping out the usual coffee soaked sponge with mango and lime juices. Add a sneaky dash of rum for a little bit of extra decadence.
Ingredients
- 250g tub of marscapone
- 300ml cream
- 160ml can coconut cream
- 70g icing sugar
- 4 tbsp rum
- 4 limes, zested plus extra zest curls to serve

For the soaking liquid
- 300ml mango juice
- 2 limes, juiced
- 5 tbsp coconut rum
Method
- Beat the marscapone, cream, coconut cream, icing sugar and rum together until thick, then fold through lime zest
- Make the soaking liquid by stirring together the mango juice, lime juice and rum in a jug, then pour into a shallow bowl
- Prepare a medium dish (about 30cm x 20cm). Dip half the sponge fingers in the soaking liquid for about 10 seconds on each side and place in a single layer in the dish, then drizzle over 3-4tbsp of the liquid
- Top with a layer of half the marscapone cream, then a layer of sliced mango (using about half). Repeat with the remaining sponges, marscapone cream and mango slices
- Chill for at least five hours, or preferably overnight
- Just before serving, sprinkle over the flaked coconut and lime zest curls.
