La cucina dolce [Engl.]

Especially for the sweet toothed the Italian cuisine seems to be the land of milk and honey – in the true sense of the word. Carlo Bernasconi’s exquisite recipe creations are based on the culinary traditions of his Italian family. Coupled with Larissa Bertonasco’s colourful illustrations, they make the book to a most enjoyable journey through La dolce Italia.

In sun-kissed Italy, countless fruit varieties, almonds and various kinds of nuts thrive all year round. As wide as the choice of ingredients is the diversity of their preparation between Bozen and Palermo. Carlo Bernasconi introduces us to the best-liked Italian desserts and pies. Basic recipes for Mascarpone cream, sponge mixture, Panna cotta and more form the prelude to the sweet recipes that are enriched by very original recommendations for the accompanying drinks. And of course Carlo Bernasconi slips in personal memories and anecdotes from his restaurant. Larissa Bertonasco’s sensual illustrations whet the reader’s appetite for Italy’s sweets!
