May 13, 200917 yr Second, the 'Orangey bit' is made from apricots. you are wrong. They are half price at mi supermarket so i have a couple of boxes next to me and they don't mention apricot. it says on the box ...,Concentrated orange juice (8% orange juice equivalent),... the orangey bit is made from Apricot pulp, sugar and a squirt of tangerine oil. try reading my post next time :)

July 7, 200917 yr This is the best thread ever. Jaffa Cakes are awesome! Personally, I think they are cakes. :) But it doesn't matter, they are so delicious.
July 7, 200917 yr They're clearly Cake, for the simple reason that they go hard when left for a while. Simples! :
July 7, 200917 yr are Jaffa cakes a cake or biscuit?) Simple rule; when cakes go off (as in out of date) they go hard, when biscuits go off they go soft. Therefore Jaffa Cakes are indeed cakes. edit - I just realised this point has already been made...oh well. He who learns must suffer, and, even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart,and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus (525 BC - 456 BC)

Anyway this book says it is apricot among other things in this cake. : IM GOING TO LIVE FOREVER .......... or die trying

July 8, 200917 yr Are these sold in the United States? They sound delicious, but I had never seen or heard of them before. [bleep] the law, they can eat my dick that's word to Pimp

July 8, 200917 yr Cakes get hard when they go stale. Biscuits get soft when they go stale. Jaffa Cakes are in fact cakes, as the sponge gets hard when stale. Beat me to it! Didn't they try claiming they were biscuits to get out of VAT or something along those lines a while back? Maxed 15/06/13
July 8, 200917 yr Jaffa cake... Why is the word cake there if it's not a cake? :-k My first thought was "Midget Gems". Lucky Charms. La lune ne garde aucune rancune.

Didn't they try claiming they were biscuits to get out of VAT or something along those lines a while back? Other way round, they claimed it to be a cake to get out of paying tax on biscuits. They even made a massive one to prove it was a cake (I don't know how this proves it is a cake, couldn't you have a massive biscuit?) IM GOING TO LIVE FOREVER .......... or die trying
