Probably "brand"-schnap, from being burnt, not for the real or supposed presence of brandy. "Brandy Snap" is a popular sweet snack sold at the Annual Hull Fair every October. The product sold at Hull Fair has traditionally been made by Wright and Co at its Bridge End Works in Brighouse, West Yorkshire.
