History Ladyfingers in transparent plastic packagesĪccording to a legend, ladyfingers originated in the late 15th century at the court of the Duchy of Savoy, and were created to mark the occasion of a visit by the King of France. Plain ladyfingers are commonly given to infants, being soft enough for teething mouths, but easy to grasp and firm enough not to fall apart. They are typically soaked in a sugar syrup or liqueur, or in coffee or espresso for tiramisu. They are a principal ingredient in many dessert recipes, such as trifles and charlottes, and are also used as fruit or chocolate gateau linings, and for the sponge element of tiramisu. Ladyfingers, or in British English sponge fingers (sometimes known by the Italian name savoiardi or by the French name boudoirs ), are low-density, dry, egg-based, sweet sponge cake biscuits roughly shaped like large fingers.
