About Mascarpone Cheese

Mascarpone is a rich Italian cream cheese originating from Lombardy. It is made by curdling cream with citric acid, giving it an ultra-smooth, velvety texture. It is the key ingredient in tiramisu and pairs with both sweet and savoury dishes. Despite tasting indulgent, it has a surprisingly neutral, milky flavour.

Pairings

Use in tiramisu, pasta sauces, risotto, or spread on toast with honey. Pairs with dessert wines like Vin Santo or Moscato.
