Biscuits From The Past Princes Or Was It Princess Biscuits

[pacuk01]

Can anyone remember these biscuits. They used to come in a blue packet. They were in piles of 4 or 5 biscuits side by side with cardboard around them.
They are a circular shortbread with a criss cross pattern likes maths paper on the top. And sugar grains sprinkled across them. I know Sainsbury did a similar shortbread in a twin packet which is now discontinied .

I can find nothing about these no images who made them.etc not a thing.

No they are not the ones. These are from late 60s 70s. They are just shortbread like Lincoln with criss cross pattern on top and sugar grains...nothing else

No I don't think it was pennywise, were they around in those years.

Pennywise were definitely making biscuits in the 70s, maybe also the 60s

Royal Dukes, they had the names of dukedoms on top, tasted a bit like malted milk
