2025 was a splendid year for Kylian Mbappe on a personal level. The French superstar regained his mojo and went on a crazy scoring spree, breaking the record for most goals scored by a Real Madrid player in a debut season, and he hasn’t stopped since.
After finally getting his dream move to Real Madrid in 2024, Mbappe’s first season was largely disappointing. Despite helping his team win the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Intercontinental Cup, Mbappe received a lot of criticism from fans and critics who were questioning his ability to lead the team and calling out his inconsistency.
However, 2025 has brought Mbappe a lot to celebrate.
Since the turn of the year, Mbappe has turned into a totally different beast. Kylian has become a goalscoring machine, following in the footsteps of his idol Cristiano Ronaldo.
With 59 goals in 2025, Mbappe has equalled Cristiano Ronaldo’s record for Most Goals Scored in a Calendar Year by a Real Madrid Player.
In fact, Mbappe celebrated his 59th and record-equalling goal with Ronaldo’s Siu celebration.
After celebrating his 27th birthday on December 20th, and equaling Ronaldo’s goal record on the 21st, Mbappe celebrated in the most Mbappe way possible – by enjoying a container of Tiramisu, one of his favorite dishes.
The speedy forward has long been a Tiramisu lover, as there was a viral video many moons back where Mbappe is seen taking out a jar of Tiramisu from the fridge and kissing it as the Champions League anthem is blaring in the background.

Now, Mbappe has grown up, and so has the size of the tiramisu he loves having. The small jar is now a container as Mbappe was seen celebrating in a private jet.
With La Liga going for a winter break, Mbappe was seen traveling in a private jet where he was dressed to impress, wearing a blue athleisure suit with a luxury watch and a tiramisu cake in hand.
Like his idol, Ronaldo, Mbappe is also known to be very strict with his diet. He has often iterated how he adheres to a set diet plan consisting of lean meat, protein shakes, protein bars, eggs, sugar-free porridge, whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and more.
In fact, he’s so big on the importance of diet that in the past, Mbappe has held culinary workshops. Back in 2019, Mbappe took part in a cooking workshop at Yann Arthus-Bertrand’s GoodPlanet Foundation.
Here, he taught children about the importance of nutrition, the benefits of homemade food, how to read the labels on processed foods, and more.
Moreover, he has also partnered up with Good Goût, an organic food brand, to promote healthier alternatives.
Being a strict eater, Mbappe never indulges in cheat meals… well almost never. In the same workshop, the French captain also confided that Tiramisu is his one guilty pleasure and that it’s a treat he simply cannot resist.
“I’m constantly monitored by a nutritionist and I have regular checkups. But it doesn’t hurt to treat yourself from time to time. My guilty pleasure is tiramisu. “
Aside from Tiramisu, Mbappe has claimed he’s a big fan of Spaghetti Carbonara, which is often his go-to cheat meal, as well as pasta and salmon.
Mbappe will be a key player for Real Madrid as the season heads into the business end. With the club alive in every competition, including the league where they are 4 points behind Barca, Madrid fans will be hoping Mbappe can fire them to glory and help them regain the title from Barcelona.
