Schar - Lady Fingers - Certified Gluten Free - No GMO's, Lactose, Wheat or Preservatives - (7.1 oz) 2 Pack

My husband is allergic to gluten and has to eat gluten free, which rules out about everything that’s good. Until we found these, life around the ponderosa here was bland and dull. Enter these gf free Lady Fingers and our dessert options have tripled! I Ve used them to make all sorts of tiramisus or process them in the food processor and bingo- the best graham pie crust substitute you could ever want! They taste light, soak up the liquor well, yet provide a close flavor and texture to the real deal. On occasion, they arrive pretty crunched up, but most of the time they are in good shape, and if I do find a couple that are broken up, I use them as a crunchy garnish to whatever dessert I’m making. These are truly GF free, a little pricey, but if you’re looking to pull off an impressive gf tiramisu or cheese cake, they’re a must have if you don’t want to go to the trouble of baking your own.

“These Schar lady fingers saved my dessert night. I grew up in the 80s watching my mom make tiramisu with the regular ones, but now that I’m gluten free, I thought I’d never enjoy the real deal again. These are light, crisp, and soak up espresso just like the classics — no weird aftertaste, no crumbly mess. My tiramisu came out just as good as the traditional recipe, and even the non-GF family couldn’t tell the difference. Honestly, it was like biting into a slice of nostalgia, but without the stomach ache after. A little pricey, but totally worth it for special occasions.”

These always seem to come broken and with a lot of crumbs. But the pieces are still good enough to use when I make tiramisu. Celiac safe too!

I used these to make tiramisu yesterday. They were a good price and tasted great soaked in espresso. They were nice and crispy, not at all stale, although I doubt it would have mattered for this recipe. Thankful to have a gluten free option!

Perfectly flavored. Very delicate. If you need to douse them in a liquid they disintegrate rapidly. Dunk them quickly and into the dish needed.

Awful. Nothing but powder in your mouth. Like eating vanilla flavored sand. Making tiramisu out of them renders them a mealy mess. They break down completely. Blech!

First off, these are huge! Like 4x the size of regular lady fingers. Not sure why they’re so big. I was worried that these wouldn’t hold up in the dessert because they absorb the espresso so quickly. Based on other reviews, I just dunked mine briefly on both sides while assembling. Do not soak them or you will have mush. Their texture in the dessert is perfect!

Most ladyfingers were broken when I received them.
