Taste Charleston’s Original Benne Wafers – A Sweet Lowcountry Tradition
Unique to the Lowcountry since Colonial times, Benne (from the Bantu word for sesame) was brought from East Africa and has been a beloved Southern ingredient for centuries. Our Benne Wafers, a Charleston favorite, are baked from a recipe over 100 years old — believed to be the original Benne Wafer recipe.
Perfect as a Charleston gift, wedding favor, or holiday treat, these thin, crispy sesame cookies capture the flavor of the South.
