Aachener Printen are a type of Lebkuchen originating from the city of Aachen in Germany. Somewhat similar to gingerbread Printen were originally sweetened with honey but for two centuries the tradition is to use a syrup made from sugar beets.The term is a protected designation of origin and so all manufacturers can be found in or near Aachen.
