Caramel tubes are an exquisite dessert of Italian cuisine, combining a crispy caramel shell and a delicate cheese cream.

Filled with creamy mascarpone and adorned with fresh berries, the tubes offer a harmony of sweetness, tartness, and spice. Ginger sauce adds spicy notes that highlight the depth of flavor. This dessert is perfect for concluding a festive dinner, and its elegant presentation is true art.
