Ladyfinger Biscuits

Ladyfinger biscuits are light, delicate sponge cookies made from whipped eggs, sugar, and flour. Their airy texture comes from well-beaten egg whites, making them fluffy and slightly absorbent. In the kitchen, they are most commonly used as a base for desserts such as tiramisu, trifle, and layered cakes. They absorb liqueurs, coffee, and fruit syrups beautifully, adding richness to any dish. On their own, they have a subtly sweet flavour and melt gently on the tongue. Their soft texture also makes them a popular treat for young children.
