A 14 year old Henri Charpentier in his biography claims accidentally inventing crêpes Suzette in 1895, serving no one else but Prince of Wales, who later became King Edward VII. Henri was working in front of a chafing dish and the cordials accidentally caught on fire setting the crepes ablaze. The young boy didn’t want The Prince to wait so he served the dish anyway. The Prince liked it so much that even requested the now quite well known dessert to be named after a lady who was present that day.
