My Birthday Cake
From Ferrara's website: Ferrara’s specialty tiramisu features homemade Savoiardi (Ladyfinger cookies) that they douse with espresso & coffee liqueur and layer with sweet mascarpone. Ferrara is one of New York's most iconic shops and its first Italian Bakery, founded in 1892 in Little Italy. As America's first Pasticceria and espresso bar, it was only natural that people came primarily for the coffee, cookies and cakes, and despite the many changes in the neighborhood over the decades, their offerings are still wowing everyone who walks through the door, instantly transporting them to Southern Italy.
They have been featured on the Food Network's "Best Things I Ever Ate," The New York Times, New York Magazine and just about every media outlet imaginable.
“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” — C.S. Lewis

Italian Ice Creams Food for The Sims 2
Tumblr media
These are 3 "famous" italian ice creams: Maxibon Classic, Caramel and Cucciolone. I have them in my game but I tought it was nice to share them with you too. I don't want to make a simlish version so don't ask me for that. They are medium poly (3k). It's a dessert and it's available at anytime in single and serving portions. In the single state it has a plate too. You need the invisibile plate for it to work (I added it in the rar).
Cucciolone Ice Cream is a sort of meme. It's a little bit "melted" on the top, I thought it was funny to keep it this way because when I buy it, it's always like that and it's so hard to read the joke on the top. Cucciolone is famous for its "cold" puns; on my version there is a bather who says to the dog "You are good at being a doggy", where "doggy" is also the swimming style... so stupid xD

La Squadra's favourite desserts while i wait for my own pie to finish cooking!
Risotto ✂️: " Gelo alle Mandorle " it's a fresh dessert from Sicily made with almonds, almond's milk, lemon's zest and cinnamon. Extremely sweet like all sicilian desserts but so refreshing during summer, our dear Capo likes to order it from his favourite cafe whenever he comes back to his beloved Palermo. One time he ordered one to enjoy as a post mission treat, but illuso as a joke took a bite to annoy him....never mess with Risotto's dessert...
Prosciutto 🍖: " Cartoccio Siciliano" or Macallè as tradition wants are delicious fried brioches with the same form as cannoli, filled with ricotta's cream and chocolate chips. Prosciutto is very fond of this desserts cause his beloved Nonna used to make it for him before breakfast, he sheds a little tear everytime he gets the chance to eat one, as the two of them were very close.
Formaggio 🧀: " Maritozzo alla panna " it's again a pan brioche filled with a super fresh cream, dusted with sugar. Now why formaggio loves this one you may ask? Cause this little piece of heavenly sweetness was always served to future brides before their wedding ( maritozzo is like the roman endorsement for " husband " ) and little cheese man, being always the youngest cousin/nephew got to eat as much as he wanted, plus being spoiled rotten by the women of his family during this occasions.
Illuso 🔎: " Bonèt " is a typical pudding from Piemonte, and is called like this cause the stamp where this dessert gets cooked looks like a little hat ( Bonèt is in fact another way to say hat in Piemonte's dialect ) the secret of this pudding is in the liquor used to make it: the Fernet. During his high school time, Illuso got into baking to woo the girls in his " Liceo " but after some time he actually liked to de-stress by putting his purple apron on and start whisking some eggs and sugar. The Bonèt was in fact his first perfect recipe to achieve.
Melone 🍈: " Cantucci e Vinsanto " Now, NOW THIS IS PERSONAL! As a proud " Cittina Toscana " i am very invested in the desserts of my region and you can't leave Tuscany without getting at least once the Cantucci ( biscuits made with a dough similar to bread but with almonds inside ) and soak them in some good old Vinsanto ( a liquor typical of tuscany ). Melone always ate them, he doesn't even remember when he started but home to him is this: putting on an old Pieraccioni's VHS, read the newspaper and enjoy Cantucci and Vinsanto, he is THAT tuscan and is not ashamed.
Ghiaccio 🧊: " Torta Putana " being a dessert from Veneto, of course it has alcool in it and the name is very crude ( it traslates to Wh*ore Cake ) but the results won't disappoint! Being made with a couple days old bread soaked in milk, raisins, lemon and orange's zest is perfect to end a meal with sweetness; the young Ghia at first hated it but the faces of the old ladies of his neighbourhood after he yelled the name ( followed by blasphemies of course ) was even sweeter than the cake itself...
Pesci 🐟: " Struffoli" Pesci is the sweet tooth of the team, and being born and raised in Napoli of course he was familiar with tons of these honey coated bits. Pesci is the son of a baker, and he was always fascinated by the ability of his father's hands that prepared over 10 kg of it during Christmas, one time he ate too many and had to spend the whole morning at the hospital with his mother

Drunken Fruitcake Tiramisu :) Instead of lady fingers, I used slices of Christmas fruit cake that I soaked in rum. I topped the tiramisu with dried fruit, walnuts, and cocoa powder.

Easy Recipe for The Best Italian Ricotta Lemon Bundt Cake
Lemon cakes are one of my all-time favorite desserts, such as orange ricotta bundt cake, chocolate ricotta bundt cake, and almond ricotta bundt cake. This Ricotta Lemon Bundt Cake with Zucchini is the most recent addition to my lemon cake recipe arsenal. You might be thinking, "Zucchini?" What exactly is it? Yes! While zucchini and chocolate have almost become standard. It thickens and moistens the cake, enhancing the lemon flavor.
The icing on this lemon ricotta cake adds a hint of blackberries to the cake's strong lemon flavor. This simple cake recipe tastes and looks delicious, especially when baked in a bundt pan.
Tumblr media
Drizzling a glaze over your lemon cake adds an interesting flavor and a lovely crimson hue.
MY STORY WIHT LEMON RICOTTA BUNDT CAKE
Ciambellone is a simple Italian-style Bundt cake baked in a circular, ring-shaped (Bundt) pan, as the name suggests. ("Ciambellone" translates as "large ring" or "giant doughnut.") In Italy, ciambellone/ciambellotto/ciambella cakes are almost as numerous as Bundt cakes. My version evolved over the years from my Aunt Dina's lemon-and-anise-scented ciambellotto to this version, with olive oil, ricotta, and extra lemon. The combination of olive oil and ricotta results in a delicate, moist cake with a soft, slightly gritty crumb that keeps for several days. It's the kind of plain cake that Italian aunts and grandparents keep on hand for (un)expected visitors.
This lemon and ricotta Bundt cake are like sunshine on a plate, and it's a quick and simple way to commemorate a special occasion. (In fact, I've made this cake for Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, baby and wedding showers, and holiday brunches over the years, and it's always a hit, disappearing quickly.) Although citrus fruits are in season during the winter and provide welcome relief from gloomy days, I find myself craving light and colorful lemon sweets like this one more frequently in the spring. This lemon cake feels right at home, brightening up a cold winter afternoon with a mug of hot tea as it echoes the brightness of a beautiful spring day, which is enhanced when served with in-season berries.
This not-too-sweet cake can be served as an afternoon snack or even for breakfast, as the Italians do (with an espresso or cappuccino, of course). Garnish with confectioners' sugar or dollops of homemade whipped cream, fresh fruit, or berry compote. You can gild the lily and elevate the cake to the level of special-occasion dessert by making a simple lemon glaze with confectioners' sugar and lemon juice to spread on top of the cake, but it isn't necessary. (And, while my Aunt Dina would have frowned on this extra step, I doubt she would have refused a glazed piece if she had a sweet tooth.)
WHERE CAN I FIND LEMON RICOTTA BUNDT CAKE INSTRUCTIONS?
This is also one of the simplest cakes to make. No additional layers, icing, or decorating will be used.
THE BEST RECIPE FOR LEMON RICOTTA BUNDT CAKE
Tumblr media
The recipe calls for standard cake ingredients such as butter, eggs, sugar, flour, baking soda, and baking powder to achieve a light texture. But there's one more ingredient that makes all the difference.
INGREDIENTS
• Nonstick frying spray on a bundt pan
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 4 tablespoons baking powder
• 1 tablespoon kosher salt
• 12 cups unrefined cane sugar
• 2 tbsp coarsely grated lemon zest (from about two large lemons)
• 1 cup moderately flavored extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 (16-ounce) container of whole-milk ricotta cheese (about 134 cups)
• four enormous room-temperature eggs
• Confectioners' sugar for final cake coating
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Coat the Bundt pan with cooking spray, making sure to get into all of the crevices.
Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar and lemon zest until the sugar is moist and aromatic. Whisk in the ricotta and eggs until well-mixed.
Whisk the flour mixture into the wet ingredients with a rubber spatula until thoroughly combined. (I use a whisk here and there to help blend the flour into the thick batter; just don't overbeat the mixture, or you'll end up with a less-tender cake.)
Fill the prepared Bundt pan halfway with batter, smooth the top, and tap the pan lightly. Cook it for 40-50 minutes. To be safe, I usually start checking mine at the 30-minute mark.)
Before carefully transferring it to a rack, cool it for 15 minutes completely. The cake can be kept covered for 2 to 3 days. (I kept mine for a few days on a cake plate covered with a plastic cake dome.)
WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT INGREDIENT IN MOIST CAKES?
Without a doubt, the secret to this show-stopper is ricotta. It makes richer and moisture to the cake quickly.
WHAT TASTE DOES LEMON RICOTTA CAKE HAVE?
The icing adds a hint of blackberries to the cake's strong lemon flavor.
Ricotta cheese is perfect for the dish. It has a beautiful buttery crumb, and the brilliant yellow flesh contrasts beautifully with the rich crimson blackberry glaze!
It's stunning, as are all ricotta desserts. When you serve it to your guests, you'll feel so happy and prosperous! You can also make Martha Stewart lemon ricotta bundt cakes. If you're on a diet, a lemon ricotta bundt cake without gluten would be preferable.
NOTES
* I use olive oil in a lot of my baked goods because I like the depth of flavor it adds; the Italian perfect lemon ricotta bundt cake is very healthy!

I didn't know there was such a thing as espresso custard until I saw it in the case at Sorrento Italian Market. I may need a thesaurus in Italian to find the right words to describe it.
For now in my rusty Italian, "Non ho assagiato in dolce del genre"

Cinque Formaggi or white pizza.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ricotta, parmesan, mozzarella, some other white cheeses
To level it up, I added my garlic butter mixture. Spread over the crust and drizzled over the top before cooking.
Butter, minced fresh garlic, parsley, parmesan, everything but the bagel seasoning, nutritional yeast.
The trick is dot the ricotta spread it a little, leave rivers between. Fill the rivers with your other cheeses. Top with garlic butter. Bake.
(For a brick oven back, I heat the pan up first).
The dough instructions said 14-20 minutes. I did 10. It was perfect. But I was like, let me follow instructions and did an additional three. Big mistake. It cooked the center too much.
Shout out to Kelly Stamps on YT. She talked about her love of Eataly so you know I had to go. Didn't get that wet coffee bread, though. Couldn't pay me to eat that with nobody's mouth.
I had this at Eataly this spring break, and I've been obsessed. And we don't have one here, and I'm not paying 10 American dollars for a 5x5 slice, that is, while delicious, mostly crust.
