One of the factors why your tiramisu taste bitter is that you use a strong coffee or it also be your mascarpone cheese. Don't overbeat your mascarpone mixture, as this can cause it to become too dense and potentially develop a bitter taste. 😉👌

Tiramisu can turn bitter if the coffee used is too strong or if too much cocoa powder is added. It's also possible that the cocoa powder used is unsweetened, contributing to the bitterness. Adjusting the sweetness level or using a milder coffee may help balance the flavors. Additionally, ensure that the ingredients are fresh and properly measured to avoid any overpowering flavors.
 
If your tiramisu is bitter, it could be due to using too much unsweetened cocoa powder or espresso, or the cocoa powder might be too dark or bitter. Additionally, overbrewed or overly strong espresso can contribute to bitterness, as can using too little sugar in the mascarpone mixture. Adjusting the sweetness and balance of flavors should help improve the taste of your tiramisu.
 
The bitterness in your tiramisu could be from using overly strong coffee or too much cocoa powder. Try using a milder coffee or adding more sweetened cocoa powder to balance the flavors. 🍰☕🍫
