Not bad
The tiramisu turned out better than expected. Bit soggy but better than what I've used before.
Trifle sponge fingers
love it's separately wrapped into two batches. I made strawberry trifles with this and love the result, but this is sweeter than the one I usually buy from Waitrose. If I have to make trifle or tiramisu with this again, I'd reduce the amount of sugar in cream
Not the best
Used in tirimisu and was ok but went soggier, but a bit chewy in the middle. Used Tesco own brand last time and they were better
Perfect for tiramisu
I was a bit skeptical ordering these after reading mixed reviews but went with them last minute and they were absolutely perfect in a tiramisu, not too sweet. Will definitely buy again.
Very sweet.
These are not trifle sponges as I know them rather they are Lady Fingers/boudoir biscuits which are slimmer and more sugary than traditional sponges, which I used to split in half and spread with a loganberry jelly then soak with fruit juice and alcohol of choice. They will work for a trifle but will make it sweeter and more of a faff to make.
No. Just no. 2 stars for a trifle.
I was regularly ordering the Arden & Amici Savoiardi on Ocado. Suddenly they disappeared and I ordered 2 packs of these instead. Terrible mistake. If you want a cheap trifle sponge, these are ideal - they are marketed as such after all. If you but these thinking they will do for a tiramisu then you're going to be disappointed. As a classically trained pastry chef, I should really just make my own but tiramisu is laborious and I'm short in time usually. My main issue with these is the quality control seems none existent. In a pack you'll find they start thick and light coloured. In a gradient fashion, you'll reach the end where they are tin and very dark. They also have the thickest layer of sugar on, it fall off in one big slab, so forget serving one or two with a coffee. I've no idea why there is a tiramisu recipe on the pack, especially a poor one. Not impressed.
