Tiramisu is assembled rather than baked, coffee-soaked sponge alternating with a mascarpone cream, and it's one of the few desserts that arguably improves for being made ahead, since the sponge needs time to take up the coffee. Freezing holds those layers distinct. The sponge stays soft and saturated, the mascarpone stays smooth and dairy-heavy, and cocoa dusted over the top supplies the only bitter note against an otherwise sweet dessert. It sits in the more European-leaning part of Sara Lee's freezer range, with the layered cakes rather than the fruit pies. Sold ready to thaw, and sliced once soft enough to cut cleanly.
