Jacob’s
Jacob’s, originally a small Irish biscuit bakery founded in 1851, has a rich history inter-
twined with the evolution of biscuit-making, particularly in the UK and Ireland. While
Jacob’s is well-known for Cream Crackers and Twiglets, their shortbread
history is less prominent but still noteworthy within the broader context of
the company’s biscuit production. The company, now part of Valeo Foods, has
seen its production move from Ireland to other
European countries.
