Description:

Lady Fingers (called Savoiardi in Italian, meaning "from Savoy") are light, sweet, sponge cakes roughly shaped like a rather large, fat finger. They originated in the late 15th century at the court of the Duchy of Savoy, and were created to mark the occasion of a visit of the King of France. Later they were given the name Savoiardi and recognised as an "official" court cookie. They were particularly appreciated by the young members of the court and offered to visitors as a symbol of the local cuisine.
