As a holder of the Royal Warrant since 1866, Colman’s of Norwich is considered a British staple. The company first enjoyed recognition as”Manufactures to Her Majesty the Queen Victoria.”  The then-Prince of Wales followed suit two years later by granting the company a Warrant as Purveyors to His Royal Highness. 

A royal warrant allows a supplier to advertise their association with royalty by adding a prestigious seal to their goods.

In honor of royal baby #2’s impending birth any day now, Colman’s is sharing family recipes with royal fans worldwide.
