Forno Bonomi Savoiardi Ladyfingers, Italian Biscuits 200g (7.1oz)

Forno Bonomi Savoiardi are Italian ladyfinger biscuits from Forno Bonomi, one of the historic Veneto bakers that has produced the canonical Savoiardo — the long, dry, finger-shaped sponge biscuit with a slightly crispy sugar crust that is the foundational ingredient of tiramisu and the standard Italian ladyfinger for both confectionery and pastry applications. Forno Bonomi is a family-run Italian bakery from Illasi in the Veneto region, operating since the 19th century, and the Savoiardi line is the product the bakery is most associated with internationally — the biscuit that professional pastry chefs and home cooks throughout Europe reach for when making tiramisu, charlotte, or any layered dessert that requires a light, absorbent biscuit capable of soaking up espresso, liqueur, or fruit juice without collapsing. The Savoiardo originated in the royal kitchens of the House of Savoy in the 15th century and became one of the canonical Italian biscuit forms: a dry, egg-based sponge biscuit that functions both as a standalone sweet dipped in dessert wine or coffee and as the structural and textural component of the great Italian layered desserts. Dip in espresso for tiramisu, use as the structural element of any layered dessert requiring ladyfingers, or eat directly with a glass of dessert wine or milk as the classic Italian sponge biscuit.
