I love jaffa cakes....

but here is a tip...... ASDA smart price jaffa cakes... taste just the same and cost about 1/5 the price. Just go buy one pack and see.... i did a test on someone and mixed 4 together, 2 smart price and 2 proper... they couldnt tell the differance at all!

Jaffa cakes, mmmmmmmmm, I can't possibly imagine how a smaller one could be better. I've always stayed loyal to the mcvities ones, having been under the impression that all the imitations were rubbish, next time i'm in asda i'll pick up a single pack of smart price ones just to try them out. If thats true then it could mean buying 5 times as many jaffa cakes!! :D
 
Has anyone else tried the new varieties of Jaffa cakes? I have had the raspberry ones (yum) and the lemon ones (not sure - still thinking).
 
Big one easily. why...........because:

FULL MOON, HALF MOON....................... TOTAL ECLIPSE :D

It's just not the same with the little ones.

Absolutely. I really miss Jaffa Cakes!
In Canada you can only get something similar by a company called Pims. But they don't have the Orange flavour AFAIK!


Oh and here's something else I Google'd! :-

[Int.: Buffy's house (living room). Buffy, Dawn, Xander, Anya and Willow watch as Giles gleefully opens a package from England containing several boxes of cakes. The gang starts to tease Giles as Buffy watches.]



DAWN: What is that?



XANDER [holding a box and mock-reading its slogan]: It's Jaffa Cake! A small disc of tasteless unspongey sponge cake topped with jelly, held inches away from real oranges for several seconds, crowned by a wafer-thin layer of chocolatey goodness!



ANYA [taking a cake off of Giles' hand shortly before he can eat it]: That doesn't look like goodness to me. It looks like badness.



[Giles regards Anya with a reproachful glare.]



WILLOW: These cakes aren't good for your health, Giles.



ANYA: Willow is right. A man of your age should...



GILES [interrupting Anya]: ...should be able to choose his own food.



DAWN: I think Willow is right, too.



GILES: How typically American. All you're eating are bagels, pancakes with syrup, peanut butter: you eat unhealthy stuff all the time; truth be told, every type of food you didn't steal from other countries -- and in the case or pizza, even that -- is unhealthy. You don't even have sausages for breakfast!



BUFFY [now joining the group]: Seriously, Giles, these cakes could be dangerous. They look ... evil. [happy voice] Should I slay them?



[Giles is speechless for a moment, during which]


SPIKE [enters and walks straight to the table]: Ooohh, Jaffa Cakes!



BUFFY: You, too?



SPIKE [indignant]: What? I'm English!

And this:-

Jaffa Cakes: Biscuit or Cake?

The source of one of the most complex conundrums ever to challenge mankind:

Is it a cake or is it a biscuit?

These small circular sponges topped with chocolate and squidgy orange stuff have been the subject of much debate over the years. Even the British government has become embroiled in this web of snack-related intrigue. At present the Jaffa Cake is classified as a cake but the British government is attempting to get it reclassified as a biscuit. This would mean it would come under a higher tax bracket as biscuits aren't as perishable as cakes, or something technical like that.

It is not clear how much more expensive the Jaffa Cake would become should this proposal go through Parliament, but it's possible they could move from the realms of 'everyday favourite' to become more a much more exclusive item. In which case, they could end up being treated similarly to fine wines, so that in the future, small groups of Jaffa Cake connoisseurs might be found in darkened cellars discussing texture, nose, and full-bodied flavour.

Whatever happens, the Jaffa Cake will retain a unique place in the biscuit/cake market.
