Ingredients
  

Dessert Components
  • 200 g mascarpone cheese Must be softened
  • 350 g heavy cream Well chilled
  • 60 g sugar Regular granulated sugar
  • 150 g strawberry jam or strawberry confit
  • 2 tbsp strawberry jam For soaking syrup
  • 1/2 unit lemon juice Freshly squeezed
  • as needed unit Ladyfingers (Savoiardi biscuits)
  • as needed unit Red velvet spray or red mirror glaze Optional for decoration

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Mix strawberry jam and lemon juice to create a soaking syrup. Quickly dip ladyfingers and place them in the freezer until firm.
  2. Soften mascarpone with a spatula, then add chilled heavy cream and sugar. Whip until thick and smooth.
  3. Spread mascarpone cream onto plastic wrap. Place frozen soaked ladyfingers on top and spread strawberry confit over them.
  4. Add another layer of mascarpone cream, ensuring the biscuits are fully covered.
  5. Lift the plastic wrap and roll tightly. Shape gently into a lip form by pinching the center and rounding the edges.
  6. Freeze the wrapped dessert until firm so it holds the lip shape.
Decoration
  1. Remove plastic wrap and spray with red velvet spray or pour red mirror glaze for a glossy lip effect.

Notes

Let frozen lips rest at room temperature 6–8 minutes before serving. Serve on a chilled plate with fresh strawberries or crushed pistachios for contrast. Store wrapped in plastic in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Thaw before serving.
