Olde Colony Bakery Original Charleston Benne Wafers Gift Tin

Unique to the Lowcountry since Colonial times, Benne (which is the Bantu word for sesame) was brought from East Africa and planted extensively throughout the South. Many Lowcountry recipes call for this tasty toasted seed, but none is so loved as the Benne Wafer.

A Charleston favorite, this recipe dates back over 100 years and is believed to be the original Benne Wafer recipe.

Enjoy 15 ounces of the Original Charleston Benne Wafers in a decorative rose gold tin! The perfect gift for the Benne Wafer lover in your family. 

For the best taste, eat within 6 months. Please store indoors in a cool, dry location.
