- FROM: The “Savoiardi”, which take their name from the original region of Savoy, are sweet and light biscuits with a very crumbly consistency.
- SHAPE: a crushed cylinder with rounded edges, reminiscent of a thick finger, for this reason they are called in English lady fingers, namely fingers of checkers.
- ORIGIN: Their origin is traced to the late fifteenth century, when they were created at the court of the Dukes of Savoy in tribute to a visit of the king of France.
- INGREDIENTS: The biscuits are one of the main ingredients for Tiramisu and in the Neapolitan culinary tradition, during the carnival period, they are dipped in the pudding.

Great for TiramisuWe make two fresh fruit tiramisu dishes each year, strawberry from a Giana deLaurentis recipe and peach that we adapted from the strawberry recipe. Both require good quality crisp lady finger cookies. The ones imported from Italy seem to be the best and they are almost impossible to find in local supermarkets so ordering these from Amazon fills the bill.
