According to legend, Mint Cake was discovered by accident when a Kendal confectioner, intending to make glacier mints, took his eye off the cooking pan for a minute - with very popular results!
The original energy bar, Kendal Mint Cake was taken on the first successful expedition to the summit of Everest, in 1953. Sir Edmund Hillary & Sherpa Tenzing Norgay ate Kendal Mint Cake on top of Everest as they gazed at the countryside down below. A member of the expedition wrote, It was easily the most popular item on our high altitude ration our only criticism was that we did not have enough of it!
This naturally increased sales of mint cake to hikers, climbers and visitors to the Lake District - Kendal Mint Cake can now rank as one of the world's most travelled sweets!
