The origin of "Maria" Biscuits is English. It was invented by the Freans Peek Industrial Firm in 1874 in honor of the wedding of Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh and Duchess Maria Alexandrovna of Romania, daughter of Emperor Alexander II of Russia. This biscuit is served as a snack at tea time in Portugal, but also in Spain, Mexico, Australia, India, and South Africa.
