Savoyard biscuits take their name from the Savoy region and it seems that they were created in 1348, by a pastry chef of the court of Amedeo VI, who decided to serve them during a lunch organized in honor of the royals of France.
The success was immediate and the Savoiardi were officially adopted by the Royal House of Savoy and thus they were also known in France and the United Kingdom.
In Italy they spread to all the regions that came into contact with the Savoy, they are in fact well known in Sardinia and Sicily, but clearly the original recipe was reinterpreted by local pastry chefs.
