Are jaffa cakes really cakes or are they biscuits?

This debate was on Corrie last night. Can't tell you the answer though because before they came to the conclusion, I came to my senses and grabbed the remote off herself and turned on the Ireland game. I wished I left it on Corrie...

Bald Eagle: I'd say it's more like a cake

Jimbo well done it is indeed a cake. McVitties won a court battle with Customs and Excise over the classifaction of Jaffa Cakes as biscuits in 1991. The importance of this fact is that cakes are exempt from VAT.

Mid-mon-man - You should really watch more Corrie!!!

I'm getting jaffa cakes on the way home from work tonight. I'll do some research and present my findings in the morning.

Happytobehere its scientificly proven that the greatest 'dunkin' biscuits ever made are toffee-pops. If your mrs brings you custard creams cancel Valentines.
Speaking of valentines isn't it time Germac and Donal óg kissed and made up. Doh!!
Bloody hell this whole non-Cork thing is hard

Bald Eagle, I think I'll watch it religiously from now on, whenever an Ireland game is on at least!

I have recently discovered heaven. And heaven is a box of Foxes Whipped Creams. They are officially the greatest biscuit I have ever tasted (and I've tasted a lot of biscuits). I encourage all of you to try them out. You will not regret it I promise.

I also like the foxes ad where the bear (??) says "bis-quits".

Custard Creams - if they were even brought into the house, there would be divorce. She gets these chocolate chip cookies in Aldi. I don't know the name of them but something with chocolate chip cookie in it, no doubt. they come in a blue rapping, they are feckin gorgeous with a cup of tea. you could easily find yourself eating a packet of them with a cup. I bet if we could get all the protagonists in C*rk together around a table and I get my Mrs to supply Tea and those Aldi chocolate chip cookies in her best china, do ye think it could be sorted, that problem which we are not allowed to talk about in this thread? Is it worth a try?

Mid Mon Man
Debate on jaffa cakes being a biscuit or a cake, according to corry, there biscuits something to do with they have to rise to be a cake.
macoroon bars are also a biscuit.
