Forno Bonomi Savoiardi Ladyfingers, Italian Biscuits 500g (17.6oz)

Forno Bonomi Savoiardi are dry, airy sponge ladyfinger biscuits — the classic Italian biscotto that absorbs espresso and liqueur without disintegrating, the structural biscuit that tiramisu and Charlotte Royale were built on for the past century. Forno Bonomi is a Veneto-based Italian biscuit producer based in Castelfranco Veneto, specialising in the Savoiardo format that the Savoy court is said to have first prepared in the fifteenth century and that Northern Italian pastry culture never abandoned. The Savoiardo is essential across Northern Italian dessert culture — appearing as the base layer of every home-made tiramisu, the cup-liner in a charlotte, and the simple coffee-dunk biscuit at the morning Italian bar. Layer into tiramisu with mascarpone and espresso, build a charlotte royale with fruit cream, or dip into a cappuccino for the effortless Italian mid-morning snack.
