The one people come back for
“Tiramisu donut is a game changer.” We hear that a lot. Usually from someone who wasn’t sure a doughnut could pull off tiramisu — then tried it anyway.
Sometimes it’s followed by this:
“The perfect combination of sweet, flavour and richness.”
“Not sickly. Amazing tasting — not too heavy.”
“So fresh with generous fillings.”
“The hardest part of my day was deciding which two to choose.”
One Mama Mia Tiramisu explains all of it. That’s what makes Bombolone’s tiramisu doughnut in London different from anything you’ll find in a chain.
ORDER A BOX
That afternoon slump? This fixes it.
Tiramisu means “pick me up”. A box of Mama Mia Tiramisu to the office is the most Italian way to fix a 3pm meeting.
Ordering is simple — boxes ready to go, easy to carry, and guaranteed to disappear faster than you’d expect. Once one person tries this tiramisu donut, the box doesn’t last long. Office orders and team treats available for collection or delivery across Central London.
Sending a gift? This is the one that surprises people.
Most people expect flowers or a card. A Bombolone box with Mama Mia Tiramisu says something different — it says you know good food. Rich, Italian, nothing like anything from a supermarket. The kind of gift people actually mention afterwards.
If you’re unsure — this is the safe one. It lands every time.
That first bite — quiet for a second, then everyone reaches for another.

Why tiramisu doughnuts?
Tiramisu isn’t a trend. Italy’s been making it since the 1960s — born in the Veneto region, built on mascarpone, coffee and cocoa, and now one of the most recognised Italian desserts in the world. Tiramisu means “pick me up” in Italian. That tells you everything about what it should feel like. Not heavy. Not sickly. A coffee and mascarpone hit that does exactly what the name promises.
It’s also Sonia and Paweł favourite dessert. Not their favourite doughnut flavour — their favourite dessert, full stop. When they were building the Bombolone menu, putting tiramisu on it wasn’t a commercial decision. It was personal.
The Italian version — the tiramisu bomboloni — is what Mama Mia Tiramisu is based on. This isn’t a twist on tiramisu. It’s how it’s meant to be adapted. A mascarpone doughnut in the Italian tradition — made properly, with a cream that takes real ingredients and real time to get right. The only question was whether they could make it do justice to the dessert. That took a while.
Most don’t get this right.
What makes it special
It starts with the dough. Italian brioche-style — soft, airy, made to hold a filling without getting in the way of it.
Then comes the cream. Espresso mascarpone — made in-house, from scratch, every morning. Not a flavouring. Not an extract. Real mascarpone, real coffee, whipped until it reaches the right texture and richness. Filled by hand into every doughnut, not injected by machine. The difference is in the first bite — the cream reaches the centre, not just the edges.
On top: Callebaut cocoa powder, dusted properly, and the chocolate ‘B’ that finishes every Mama Mia Tiramisu. It looks like tiramisu. It tastes like tiramisu.
If you’ve had a tiramisu doughnut in London before, this is where it changes. The espresso doughnut that finally tastes like the real thing.
How it's made
Most doughnuts are made commercially — mixed by machine, filled by machine, finished by machine. Bombolone’s are not.
Every morning before we open, the dough is mixed from scratch. Each portion proved until it reaches the right texture, shaped by hand. No two identical. Fried at the right temperature until the crust holds.
The tiramisu cream is where this one is different from every other flavour. It’s made in-house — mascarpone, whipping cream, eggs, espresso coffee paste, caster sugar. Mixed and set until it reaches the texture that holds inside a doughnut without collapsing. Then filled by hand. The Callebaut cocoa goes on last, dusted over the top. The ‘B’ chocolate piece finishes it.
Made every morning before we open. Gone when they’re gone.
Why people keep coming back
Our bakers start before sunrise every morning — not to reheat, but to begin from scratch.
The dough was refined over six months before the first doughnut was ever served.
The tiramisu cream is made in-house. The recipe took months to develop. We made dozens of versions before this one.
Within the first month of opening, Bombolone became the #1 ranked bakery in London on TripAdvisor. 5.0 stars. Over 120 verified reviews. Held ever since.
The tiramisu doughnut is the one that surprises people most — because they expect it to be a poor imitation. It isn’t.
Antony M “I tried Tiramisu flavour and I loved how it had the perfect combination of sweet, flavour and richness.”
Charlie P “Everyone should try the tiramisu donut — it is a game changer!”
Andy M “I chose a Pistachio and a Tiramisu — they were both amazing.”
Arian A “The best donuts in London — so fresh with generous fillings.”
If you’re deciding between a classic chocolate hazelnut treat in London and this — most people end up ordering both and knowing immediately.

Every review below is from a real customer. No incentivised reviews. No paid placements. Just people who walked in off Whitcomb Street and wanted to tell someone about it.
Best paired with
The espresso cream is rich enough that you want coffee alongside it — but not something that fights with it. Bombolone uses Moresso specialty beans from Brazil, Nicaragua, and Ethiopia, graded 80+ Arabica. A flat white sits perfectly next to the Mama Mia — the coffee in the cream and the coffee in the cup echo each other. A long black if you want the tiramisu to do all the talking.

Tiramisu doughnut London — frequently asked questions
What is the Mama Mia Tiramisu?
Mama Mia Tiramisu is Bombolone’s tiramisu doughnut — an Italian brioche-style doughnut filled by hand with espresso mascarpone cream made in-house, dusted with Callebaut cocoa powder and finished with a chocolate ‘B’. Available big (123g) or party-size (55g). Vegetarian. Contains alcohol (Kahlua).
What does a tiramisu doughnut taste like?
Rich, creamy, and unmistakably coffee — with the same balance of sweet and bitter you’d expect from a well-made tiramisu. The mascarpone cream is the thing. It doesn’t taste manufactured. It tastes like someone made it that morning. Because they did.
What is the tiramisu filling made from?
The cream is made in-house from mascarpone, whipping cream, eggs, espresso coffee paste, Kahlua and caster sugar. It’s the same approach as a classic tiramisu — adapted to hold inside a doughnut. Made fresh every morning.
Does the tiramisu doughnut contain alcohol?
No, it doesn’t. Mama Mia Tiramisu is labelled Vegetarian and Halal.
If you would like a version with alcohol, we can also prepare a tiramisu doughnut with cream containing Kahlua coffee liqueur. Just let our team know which version you’d prefer.Is a tiramisu doughnut better than regular tiramisu?
It depends what you’re looking for. A classic tiramisu is layered and served cold. A tiramisu doughnut gives you the same flavours — espresso, mascarpone, cocoa — but in a warm, soft brioche dough. Different format. Same idea. Most people don’t expect it to work. Then they try it.
Can I order Mama Mia Tiramisu online?
Yes. Available as part of a Bombolone doughnut box, online for collection or delivery. For larger orders, corporate gifting or event catering, contact us — we reply within 24 hours.
Are the doughnuts made fresh every day?
Yes. Every donut is made from scratch every morning before we open — never reheated. Once they’re gone, they’re gone. The tiramisu tends to sell out before the afternoon.
Where can I find a tiramisu doughnut in Central London?
Bombolone is at 21 Whitcomb Street, London WC2H 7HA — two minutes from Trafalgar Square, steps from the National Gallery. Open daily.
Is there a tiramisu doughnut near Trafalgar Square?
Yes. Bombolone is at 21 Whitcomb Street — two minutes from Trafalgar Square, steps from the National Gallery. The Mama Mia Tiramisu is one of the most popular flavours, so arriving in the morning gives you the best chance of finding it on the counter.
When is National Tiramisu Day and where can I celebrate it in London?
National Tiramisu Day falls on 21 March every year. Bombolone’s Mama Mia Tiramisu is available daily — but if you want to mark the occasion properly, Whitcomb Street is two minutes from Trafalgar Square. Walk-ins always welcome.
What time does Bombolone open?
Bombolone is open Monday to Friday 9am–6pm, Saturday 10am–8pm, and Sunday 10am–6pm. Walk-ins are always welcome — no booking required. We’re at 21 Whitcomb Street, London WC2H 7HA, a two-minute walk from Trafalgar Square.
Come and try it
London has no shortage of doughnuts. Very few have a cream this good or a story this honest. If you’re near Trafalgar Square, Whitcomb Street is two minutes away. If the tiramisu is still on the counter when you arrive — try it. If it isn’t, come earlier next time.
Not a tiramisu person? That usually lasts one bite.
