Tips

For those with dietary restrictions or preferences, there are several ingredient substitutions that can be made to create a similar flavor profile for this matcha-infused tiramisu. Instead of using traditional mascarpone cheese, try using coconut cream or cashew cream for a vegan option. Swap out the sponge cake for gluten-free ladyfingers or almond flour cake to accommodate those with gluten sensitivities. Substitute the espresso and rum with a strong brewed coffee or a non-alcoholic coffee liqueur. Regardless of any ingredient changes, the result will still be a delectable and visually stunning dessert.
