Muskazine is the name of a German specialty made from almonds, spices, sugar, flour and eggs. It is produced by two cafés in Dettelbach, Germany, throughout the entire year. The biscuits look like a Saint James scallop. It was first mentioned in Literature in 1691 and originated in southern Germany. It is also known in Austria, where it was first mentioned in 1790.[https://books.google.com/books?id=TzrNbDRWzxAC&q=muskaziny+&pg=PA226 Beate Spiegel: Adliger Alltag auf dem Land, 1997, S. 226], retrieved, 25 February 2012
