About Panna cotta

Panna cotta is an Italian-style chilled dessert made by setting a sweetened cream mixture, traditionally with gelatin. It is served as a soft, molded or spoonable dessert, often plain or accompanied by a sauce or fruit. Recipes vary, so the name does not specify one fixed proportion of dairy, sweetener, or setting agent.

It has a smooth, delicate texture and a creamy, mildly sweet flavour. It is usually prepared and chilled in individual molds or serving dishes, then served cold. Commercial versions and home recipes may differ in their dairy ingredients, flavourings, and setting method, all of which affect the finished texture.
