Baker Boone's
true craftsmanship

In 1932, a Belgian baker named Jan Boone Sr., creates a caramelized cookie with nothing but natural ingredients. He names it Lotus, after the flower that symbolizes purity.

Coffee + Lotus Biscoff = the perfect match

In the 1950s, baker Boone starts wrapping cookies individually. It's an instant hit. It's eagerly snapped up by cafes and restaurants as the cookie and coffee have complementary profiles. They boost each other’s flavor. Not surprisingly, the name Lotus Biscoff itself is a combination of ‘biscuit’ and ‘coffee’.
