I've been making this recipe for a few years now, and it's always a big hit with everyone! I didn't think it could get any better until I started adding some melted white chocolate to the mascarpone and cream mixture. It's absolutely HEAVEN with the flavor of raspberries and white chocolate together!

I really want to make this but I don't want to use alcohol. Any suggestions for substitutes?

This is the most delicious "go-to" recipe in my arsenal. I usually add a bit more grand marnier, whatever preserve or jam I have handy, and whichever berry is on sale, i have even used peaches. Thanks Giada!

I used strawberries instead of the rasberries and pound cake instead of the lady fingers and it was a hit! I've already made this dessert several times and my husband still asks for it!

We are chocolate lovers especially with raspberries.
Try drizzling chocolate syrup on top. OUH Heavenly!

Very easy to make. I used fresh pound cake and made it 2 days before serving to make sure the pound cake did absorb the liquids. I had to double the raspberry mixture. I also ended up adding more Grand Marnier to the marscapone mixture along with orange extract and orange zest (hey, I like orange! and it wasn't noticably 'boozy'. Next time around I'll probably reduce the amount of sugar used as the marscapone was too sweet when combined with the raspberry mixture. Maybe lemon juice/zest added to both to help cut the sweet? My guests proclaimed it delicious & like something from the local popular bakery. I also served it in a trifle dish & the presentation was very attractive. It was a bit pricey as raspberries aren't in season here ($5 a half pint, so $15, $10 for the marscapone and $30 for the smallish bottle of Grand Marnier, but was totally worth it for the ease and taste!

Believe it or not, I was in a hurry and didn't have time to go to the store for Ladyfingers, so I looked in the cupboard and found vanilla cookies (The kind with a lemon cream center I used them whole without taking out the center. Did the rest of the recipe exactly as the recipe called for and it was SO YUMMY and easy. I believe I actually like the lemon cookies better than using the ladyfingers. I had a great texture and mouth feel as well as being delish!
Thanks Giada

Made the cake for my hubby's birthday... HUGE SUCCESS with all our guests!

Substituted the ladyfingers with a yellow cake mix with a dash of vanilla extract in the batter. Baked the cake on a baking sheet to make a thin layer, similar thickness of the ladyfinger cookie.

I thawed 1 bag of frozen raspberries and used in the layers. The extra juice really helped with the flavor. The fresh fruit on top was a nice touch.

Made the cake the night before, then set it out 1/2 hour before serving. It was wonderful! This is a perfect recipe for those of us who are a little timid in the kitchen. This is my new "guaranteed not to fail" cake recipe.

This was the easiest WOW dessert I have ever made.
I served this in a trifle dish and the 2 layers fit perfectly. I put the lady fingers on thier sides to fit 14 in each layer. The layers looked beautiful with the jam and raspberries. I was worried the the Grand Marnier would be overpowering but it wasnt at all. I cant wait to make this again. I still cant get over easy it was
