If you would ask me what is my favourite desert after Creme Brulee, you guessed!...it is Panna Cotta. This delicious Italian dessert has the same texture as Creme Brulee but with different flavours. Once you try this you will love it instantly! The explosion of flavors from the berries combined with the creamy panna cotta makes this dessert extraordinary. Please, please give it a try!
