Tiramisu and spumoni are two other typical Italian desserts. Tiramisu is a dessert made from lady fingers, espresso coffee, mascarpone cheese, egg whites and sugar. Spumoni is a molded dessert which is made by layering 2 or 3 different flavors of ice cream with a layer of sweetened whipped cream.

There are many Italian desserts besides the cannoli. Tiramisu is a popular dessert that is a layered dish of Italian pound cake and a sweetened mascarpone cheese. Italian cheesecake is also popular. Instead of a cream cheese base, Italian cheesecake uses ricotta cheese and is a tasty alternative to normal cheesecake.
