Blueberry Dessert Recipes

STOP clicking for Blueberries!





blueberry dessert recipes Blueberry dessert recipes is a list of Italian Dessert Recipes where the main ingredient is... you guessed it - blueberries.

I generally am all about "fresh". But you can substitute frozen blueberries in the Italian cakes if you are super careful! You would need to:

  • Thaw the blueberries for an hour or two in a strainer
  • Pull the blueberries out of strainer with a slotted spoon and lay the berries on paper towel
  • Blot the top of berries carefully with a separate paper towel


    • As always fresh is best. But not always practical in the dead of winter.

    This website is a collection of Italian dessert recipes that have been in my family for years. Most of the photos I have taken myself. And if the recipe wasn't mine originally, it came from my grandma. Or I took one of her recipe and "did my own" thing.

    The blueberry dessert recipes aren't fancy or out of the ordinary. And as far as the Italian drinks that use blueberries, mostly the berry sangria - don't expect a "blueberry" tasting drink. The blueberry is just in there for "pretties".

    LisaBlueberries aren't used a lot in Italian cooking. But we've added them into our cooking culture AFTER we have migrated to areas where they are sold in a good part of our region. It's just we've taken our normal set of ingredients and now added that one extra thing - blueberries.



    If you don't see exactly what you are looking for - check out my home page Italian Dessert Recipes. All 190 recipes and photos are desserts and Italian drinks I have made for years.

    Thank you for stopping by!

    Lisa Gianotti Fathers Day I can already tell you the main recipes that are viewed on Italian Dessert Recipes during the last few weeks before Fathers Day - CHOCOLATE desserts, CHOCOLATE CAKES, CHOCOLATE cheesecake - basically anything chocolate.

    Not sure why we think men need chocolate. But, it's a cyclical. I see it every year - all my chocolate dessert recipes get the highest viewings.

    So, to give you some ideas - here's what most of us cook for our men on Fathers Day:

    Recipe for Chocolate Cheesecake (I love this because it uses sour cream, and makes the chocolate have the bittersweet deep end flavor

    Chocolate Walnut Cake

    Chocolate Buttermilk Cake (Uses 3 sticks of butter - I make this about 4 times a year!)

    And if you don't want chocolate? Another great holiday cake, that I make for celebrations:

    Italian Rum Cake (Give yourself a day ahead of time to make this. It needs to soak about 24 hours to flavor.)
