Yes, I love panna cotta and today’s Coffee Panna Cotta is no exception.
Coffee Crema Catalana
Milk puddings and custards are definitely among my favourite desserts and this Coffee Crema Catalana is the perfect way to end your meal!

Today’s recipe is a delicious dessert, perfect to have at the end of a meal: Coffee Cheesecake Shooters.
Vegan Cold Coffee Drink
I loooove coffee, but then again, I probably wouldn’t be Italian if I didn’t, right? This Vegan Cold Coffee Drink is so good and refreshing, so I am very happy to share it with you all.
Coffee Sables
I really love to bake cookies, especially this time of year. Yes, I know it’s hot in Australia and we do not get all the White Christmas vibes people in the Northern Hemisphere get right now, but I can still switch my oven own thanks to my air-con! So, I don’t give up baking cookies!…
TerraCycle and NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto Capsule Recycling Program Review
Coffee is very important for us Italians. I would probably say that it is an essential part of our culture and no good meal is considered as such unless it concludes with a good cup of espresso. One of the main issues Italians have when travelling abroad is the never-ending search for a “good coffee”….
Vietnamese Iced Coffee
Vietnamese Iced Coffee, or Cà phê đá, is a traditional Vietnamese coffee recipe. Coffee was introduced in Vietnam during the French rule and it quickly became a strong exporter of coffee. Cà phê đá is traditionally made using coarsely ground dark roast coffee individually brewed with a small metal French drip filter, mixed with condensed…
Baby Guinness
When I first saw this Baby Guinness cocktail over at Creative Culinary, I actually though it was beer! And when I realised that it actually wasn’t beer, I just couldn’t take my eyes off of it. This Baby Guinness is such a clever idea! And such an easy drink too. Besides, it uses my two favourite…
Affogato al Caffe
Today’s recipe is very simple. I am not even sure it can be considered a “recipe” per se, as you don’t really have to cook anything for it. However, Affogato al Caffe is a traditional Italian dessert that deserves to be on this blog, which is all about traditional Italian food! I personally love it…
Espresso and Frangelico Mousse
I know I have said this before, but puddings and cream based desserts like mousse are my favourite. I would always pick them over cake or cupcakes. And you all know how much I love espresso… I could easily have 3 a day!! So, this Espresso and Frangelico Mousse is just up my alley. Frangelico…
Lavazza #FromItalywithPassion
I am very excited about today’s post… as it is all about coffee and Italy. If you follow me on Facebook, you would have seen that I posted a special message for Manu’s Menu a few days ago. Yep, the Lavazza barista contacted me to help him spread the word about the Lavazza #FromItalywithPassion campaign. I…

This week Sunday Supper is turning “green” in honour of St. Patrick’s Day. We will be sharing recipes for green foods from beverages all the way to desserts (and everything in between), so make sure to check out all the links at the end of this post! So, green it is and what’s greener than…
Irish Coffee
As Paddy’s Day is fast approaching, I thought of sharing a classic recipe: Irish coffee. You know I love my coffee and I generally have espresso (better yet, macchiato), but on a cold winter’s evening, I love to indulge with something more. Irish coffee is simply delicious and very easy to make. It is the…
TIRAMISÙ
Today I am going to share with you my family’s recipe for one of the most classic Italian desserts: Tiramisù. I still can’t believe that I have been blogging for almost 3 years without publishing my Tiramisù recipe! Especially considering that it is one of my all time favourite desserts! The reasons are many: I…
COFFEE AND VANILLA LIQUEUR
Like every year, I made some edible gifts to give my friends for Christmas. Last year, I had successfully made some Bailey’s Irish Cream, so this time I wanted to experiment with other flavoured liqueurs. I love Kahlua, so I thought I would try that. I found lots of recipes and in the end I…
GELATINA DI CAFFÈ – COFFEE JELLO
I have been blogging for almost 3 years now and when I look back at all the the things I learnt, I almost can’t believe it. I am talking about cooking techniques and also about computer skills and photography! But what I am the most grateful for are the friendships I made along the way. …
CARAMEL ESPRESSO BARS
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
COFFEE AND KAHLUA GELATO
Today’s recipe is a spin off of my Bailey’s Ice cream. Actually, I wanted to make Bailey’s Ice cream and got all the ingredients for it… until I realised I did not have enough Baileys! Aaargh! That’s when I looked inside my liquor cabinet and saw Kahlua! Mmmmm I love coffee gelato, it is actually…
CHOCOLATE, ESPRESSO AND CHILLI MOUSSE
Have you already decided what to serve to your loved one tomorrow? If you haven’t, or are still undecided, look no further. I think I may have the answer for that, at least as far as dessert goes. I have always wanted to try and make something with chocolate and chilli… I know, it sounds…
GRANITA AL CAFFÈ CON PANNA
I am very excited about sharing today’s Regional Italian recipe. You can easily guess that this week’s region is Sicily… granite (plural for granita) are the quintessential Sicilian breakfast, especially in summer. There are so many flavours, it is hard to choose only one when you sit at one of the local cafés… my favourite…
ICED ESPRESSO
I love coffee… well, I am addicted to coffee. Not to the brewed coffee but to espresso. I restrict myself to no more than 2 a day, but I could drink so much more. Only the smell of a freshly brewed espresso in the morning sets the day in the right direction. You know what…
“CAT’S TONGUES” BISCUITS – LINGUE DI GATTO
These biscuits are a classic of Italian cuisine. Every pastry shop sells them and they are very often served with ice cream. Their name literally means “cat’s tongues” as their shape and size resemble a cat’s tongue. I simply love them… they are thin and crispy and the aroma that they create while baking takes…
