Vivace Lemon Ricotta Crespelle

A crespelle is the Italian version of the classic French crêpe, a thin, delicate pancake that can be served with sweet or savory fillings. At Vivace, an Italian restaurant in Raleigh, the Lemon Ricotta Crespelle is a signature dessert. This dish features tender, freshly made crepes filled with a rich, house-made lemon ricotta filling. The crespelle is then topped with a bright, quick berry compote, creating a dessert that is both creamy and refreshing.

The Lemon Ricotta Crespelle is a popular choice for diners looking for a lighter, fruit-forward dessert option. It is often enjoyed alongside other classic house-made desserts on the Vivace menu, such as the Tiramisu and the Dark Chocolate Mousse.

This refined dessert is often compared to other high-quality, house-made Italian desserts. Its direct competitors in Raleigh, North Carolina include the house-filled Cannoli at Caffe Luna, the seasonal dessert offerings like the Olive Oil Cake at Gravy, and the classic Tiramisu at Mulino Italian Kitchen & Bar.
