Brossard Boudoirs 175G
Brossard Boudoirs, also known as ladyfingers, are iconic French biscuits that delight with their light, crisp texture and subtle sweetness. Bakers create these elegant treats from a simple blend of eggs, sugar, and flour. After piping the batter into finger-shaped lines, they dust the surface with powdered sugar, which gives the biscuits their signature crisp top. Once baked, boudoirs turn golden on the outside while staying soft and airy inside.
Because of their texture, boudoirs play a starring role in classic desserts like tiramisu, charlottes, and trifles. Their sponge-like quality allows them to soak up coffee, fruit syrups, or liqueurs without falling apart, making them ideal for layered and creamy creations. At the same time, you can enjoy them on their own with a cup of tea or coffee for a simple, satisfying treat.
Originally crafted in the 15th century for the French royal court, boudoirs quickly gained popularity among the aristocracy. Their name comes from the French word boudoir, meaning a lady’s private sitting room—a fitting name for such a refined biscuit.
Over time, boudoirs became a staple at elegant teas and social gatherings. Hosts often treated them as a mark of sophistication, offering them to guests as a sign of taste and refinement. Today, they continue to charm dessert lovers around the world.
French patisseries still use boudoirs in both traditional and modern recipes, proving their timeless appeal. Whether you pair them with your favorite drink or use them in a dessert, boudoirs bring classic French elegance to every bite.
Fun fact: Hosts once treated boudoirs as a symbol of sophistication, often serving them at elegant teas and important social gatherings. Their elegant appearance and delicate flavor continue to make them a favorite for both traditional recipes and modern creations.
