The birth of an idea
The first Papadopoulos biscuit was baked in the family oven in Constantinople, stamped with a simple wooden mold.
In 1922, the Asia Minor disaster forces Evangelos Papadopoulos and his mother and brothers to board a ship sailing to Piraeus. The ship berths in Piraeus and at a coffee shop, where the Papadopoulos family stops for a break, a surprise awaits them: they realize that Greeks are not familiar with biscuits. And so was born the great idea of spreading in Greece their big passion, the art of biscuit-making!
