Hahah ladies fingers is okra la, was wondering for a second there.

Haha, I may have misspelled it, it's actually ladyfingers. After being soaked with cheese, coffee and kahlua, it becomes more like sponge cake.

I prefer this than Secret Recipe's use of typical sponge cake. Yuck!

Baking terminologies used in different countries may caused confusion. :run_away:

I was surprised initially too, when ladyfingers was mentioned in the recipe. :P

did I hear tiramisu?? Jeng jeng jeng...Wah..just turned on my appetite! The last time I made it...someone whacked it clean in like 2 days! Time to make it again...:tongue_roll:

Your tiramisu looks more solid than the one I made. Hmm...where did I go wrong eh....:?

[clemong888]

technically, i used budoirs or so the box says but it's all the same thing!

i didn't use kahlua this time as i'm making it for muslims.

i used only 2/3s mascarpone and the other 1/3 cream cheese, mascarpone is just too too expensive!!

[kiankheong]

I had a 100% mascarpone one. :tongue_roll:
