Alexis Bistro

A long-standing favorite among dessert lovers in KL, Alexis Bistro has built a reputation for serving one of the most iconic and unconventional tiramisus in the city.

It’s a refined yet cozy take on tiramisu that captures the warm, homestyle spirit of the entire menu.

Each serving is a visual delight, featuring perfectly layered sponge fingers soaked in bold, aromatic espresso, giving it that deep coffee kick that tiramisu lovers crave. What elevates it further is the homemade mascarpone cream, luxuriously smooth and delicately sweet, bringing an indulgent creaminess to every bite. To finish, a generous dusting of premium Valrhona cocoa powder adds a touch of bittersweet sophistication, rounding out the flavor with a gourmet edge. Whether you’re a purist or just looking for a standout dessert, this tiramisu is a must- try—elegant, balanced, and made with the kind of care you can taste.

Lachér Patisserie

Lachér Patisserie has made a name for itself in Kuala Lumpur’s dessert scene, and their tiramisu is a shining example of the refined elegance the patisserie is known for.

The layers of velvety mascarpone cream are rich and smooth, complemented by espresso-soaked sponge that’s infused with the aroma and depth of freshly brewed coffee. The top is finished with a delicate dusting of premium cocoa powder, adding just the right touch of bitterness to contrast the creamy sweetness beneath. What sets Lachér’s tiramisu apart—beyond its impeccable flavor—is its exquisite presentation, often served in minimalist, modern packaging that mirrors the brand’s luxurious aesthetic.
