Horse-foot shaped sea biscuits were the specialty of the Hanseatic family of ship’s bread and cookie bakers. For four generations their little factory supplied seagoing vessels on transatlantic routes from Hamburg to Greenland to New York. Their hard bread tasted so good that is was packaged in cans and delivered to stately homes in Berlin, Vienna, Constantinople, and St. Petersburg. Eight of these bygone biscuit trays now encase HAMBURG.
