We have been working hard on a new dessert for this summer and we finally have a winner!  Most of you that know Carino's is well-known for our desserts such as the Italian Chocolate Cake and our Homemade Tiramisu, but I wanted to round out the lineup with something that has a citrus profile for this summer.  I worked with Philippe Le Corre, who not only is a personal great friend, but in my opinion is the best pastry chef in the country!  The end result was two layers of lemon-soaked cake filled with a light mascarpone mousse and topped with butter crumbs.  This is my new Carino's favorite.  We just introduced this into certain restaurants and we have made 3 times the amount of cakes that I thought we would!  I am currently in the process of expanding the recipe to all of our locations.  Come in and give it a try and let me know what you think....
