Raspberry Quality: Use fresh, ripe raspberries for best flavor - frozen can be substituted but drain excess liquid first.
Puree Straining: Strain raspberry puree thoroughly to remove all seeds for silky smooth texture throughout cream.
Mascarpone Temperature: Use room temperature mascarpone to prevent lumps and ensure smooth, creamy texture.
Coffee Balance: Don't oversoak ladyfingers with coffee mixture as raspberry flavor should be prominent in final dessert.
Color Preservation: Add raspberry puree last to maintain beautiful pink color and prevent over-mixing.
Storage Tip: Cover tightly and refrigerate up to 3 days - raspberry flavor actually intensifies with time.
