They are available in eight countries and were inspired by French cuisine despite being a US product.
History[]
“Prince biscuit”, or “prince bisket” first appeared in a cookbook in the early 1600s. In 1602, Sir Hugh Platt's “Delightes of Ladies to adorn their Persons, Tables, Closets, and distillatories with Beauties, banquets, perfumes and waters. ”LU's version of prince biscuits emerged in the 1800s, when two French bakers fell in love, creating a company with a name composed of their initials. The duo whipped up a number of treats. Today, their once-tiny company produces these treats with an image of a prince stamped on them.
