Is Tiramisu a Safe Gluten-Free Dessert? (Yes—Ours Is!)

For dessert lovers with gluten sensitivities, finding indulgent treats that are both delicious and gluten-free can be a challenge. One dessert that often sparks curiosity is tiramisu—a beloved Italian classic known for its creamy layers and coffee-soaked ladyfingers. But is tiramisu gluten-free?
Let’s explore the answer—and why our gluten-free tiramisu is a sweet, safe option you’ll love.
Traditional Tiramisu & Gluten: The Truth
Classic tiramisu recipes typically include ladyfingers (savoiardi) made from wheat flour, which contain gluten. These sponge biscuits are soaked in espresso, layered with mascarpone cheese, and dusted with cocoa powder. Unfortunately, for people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance, the traditional version of tiramisu is off-limits.
So, Is Tiramisu Gluten-Free?
Not always. Traditional tiramisu is not gluten-free unless the ladyfingers are specifically made without gluten-containing ingredients. However, many bakeries and cafes now offer gluten-free tiramisu options made with safe alternatives that taste just as good—if not better.
