Title: Biscuits and Cakes leaflet, 1880s [Go to resource]
Description: The use of tins enabled Huntley & Palmers biscuits to be exported across the world and in particular to the British colonies. By 1874 they boasted, 'seldom a ship sails from England that does not bear within his ribs a Reading biscuit'. At home Huntley & Palmers exploited their international fame, especially the grand prize from the Paris exhibition of 1878.
