A specialty that holds a special place in Corsican cuisine, the Fiadone is a cheesecake made with Brocciu, a whey cheese.

This dessert is both simple to make and irresistible to eat, thanks to the delightful combination of Brocciu and citrus fruits—lemon and orange—which give it a light, refreshing flavor.
