It''s ok, I forgive you, Prize Jaffa, but you are still not getting your paws on my Jaffa Cakes. I think you should post the next "trivia" topic? I''m sure we are all very clever after all we found this web site. Joan xx

Personally, I consider it to be a cake.
And i like to nibble around the edges then remove the orangey slice from the base and eat them seperately.
Thats when im not troughing them down quick so i get the larger share!  ;)

if there was no biscuit and no cake ....would jaffa be regarded as just jelly? ::)

this M&S battle has been going on for a while, but the treasury were insisting they wouldn''t reimburse the company as customers had paid...it''ll be intersting to know the outcome.
Incidentally if M&S chocolate teacakes and Jaffa Cakes are classified as "cakes" why are they to be found in the biscuit aisle in store??  ;)
I bet you all look next time you''re in M&S or Tesco... ;D
(apologies to those who can''t get to M&S or Tesco (with a "c") because you live in the most beautiful village in Turkey :P)
Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt :)

I''ve been reliably informed by my very health conscious son that eating Jaffa Cakes by the box is perfectly acceptable, cos after all, they only have 1g of fat.  Hahaha

Mr B always insists that a Jaffa cake is one of his five daily portions of fruit, so if he eats 10 then he''s done a good deed for two days in one go!!  ???

I must admit to a weakness for M&S choc teacakes..especially as you can get twenty in a pack for 99p when thy are on special offer!!! ;D

Personally, I don''t care whether they are cakes or biscuits, I love ''em anyway.

But the burning question in our office recently was:

Jaffa Cakes or Hobnobs? ^-^

For the answer to every biscuit and cake-related question you have ever asked, can I recommend:

www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com

Very funny site and you can buy their book and other merchandise.  I need to get out more

I think a lot of that windfall came from the number of teacakes I buy...addicted to them

On the contrary, Feds, M&S have actually increased the cost of their teacakes..now when there''s a special offer you get 16 for £1.20 when it used to be 99p...all those 21p''s add up, you know....cm''on M&S pass your windfall on to customers who actually bought the teacakes in the first place!!! Like me... :laugh:
