Italian Desserts in Vienna — The Sweet Finale at Pasta e Basta

In Italy, dessert is not an afterthought — it is the crowning finale that rounds off the entire meal. At Pasta e Basta in Vienna Währing, we prepare our desserts with high-quality ingredients such as mascarpone for the tiramisu and fine chocolate for the tortino.

Tiramisu — The Classic

Tiramisu literally means "pull me up" — and that's exactly what it does after a hearty meal. Our recipe follows the classic preparation: ladyfingers soaked in strong espresso, layered with a fine cream of mascarpone and egg yolk, dusted with cocoa powder.

Panna Cotta & Tortino

We serve our silky panna cotta with vanilla alongside a fruity berry sauce. Chocolate lovers will enjoy our Tortino al Cioccolato — a chocolate soufflé served with vanilla ice cream and fresh mint.
