The boss who oversaw one of the greatest inventions in the history of humankind has died, aged 93 - and virtually no-one has ever heard of him!
The man? Ado Campeol.
The invention? Tiramisu.
Yes, the most fantastic foodstuff in the history of the universe was first created in 1972 in the kitchen of Ado's Alle Beccherie restaurant in Treviso, northern Italy, by his wife Alba and chef Roberto Linguanotto.
The family business was eventually sold in 2014.
Alla tenuta di Ado Campeol,Mi è dispiaciuto tanto sapere della scomparsa del signor Campeol. Voglia accettare le mie sincere condoglianze.Ciò detto, devo a lui, alla signora Campeol e al signor Linguanotto un debito di grazie che è impossibile esprimere con precisione. Grazie per il tiramisù. Grazie, grazie, grazie! È il dolce più buono del mondo! Cordiali saluti, Reg Pither, Wolverhampton, Inghilterra.
Or.......To The Estate of Ado Campeol,
I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Signor Campeol. Please accept my sincere condolences.
That said, I owe him, Signora Campeol and Signor Linguanotto I debt of thanks it is impossible to accurately convey.
Thank you for Tiramisu. Thank you, thank you, thank you! It is the finest dessert in the world!
Warm regards,
Reg Pither,
Wolverhampton,
