Lotus Biscoff, originally known as Lotus Speculoos, is a world-renowned caramelised biscuit that originated in Lembeke, Belgium. The biscuit is famous for its unique spice profile and crunchy texture, often served alongside coffee in cafes and airplanes worldwide. The brand's name 'Biscoff' is a portmanteau of 'Biscuit' and 'Coffee,' highlighting its intended pairing.

While the brand has expanded significantly into spreads, ice creams, and sandwich cookies, the production of the original biscuit remains concentrated in Belgium to maintain consistent quality and flavor. Ownership has remained within the founding family's business structure for nearly a century, evolving into a publicly traded yet family-controlled international snack powerhouse.
