But do you know why Jaffa Cakes are cakes and not biscuits? (by the way, they're vile!)

cakes go hard when the go off, biscuits go soft..

my girlfriend told me that. I take her jaffas every time i go to see her. I lost a bet with her, she got 72 last time ;)

think they're disgusterous, myself..

This one belongs in Fact of the Day- actually, it already is in fact of the day, but it was ages ago. My grandad was one of the master bakers who invented the jaffa orangey bit. The other was the actor Ian Richardson's dad. Orangey blood flows in these veins! But neither one of them got a payout or recognition for it.

There is an art, that i have perfected over many packets of Jaffa cakes, of jaffa cake dunking.

Dunk jaffa cake in hot tea, but get it out in into waiting gob either
a) the chocolate melts
or
b) the sponge disintergrates.

Hours of fun can be had perfecting the technique, my best is seventeen from 1 cup of tea before getting one wrong.

?? U ??

Dunking in cold milk is also good, but less of a challenge. :smt045

best way to eat these utterly lovely jaffa cakes is with a tub of ice cream.

Open tub and allow to stand for a couple of minutes until ice cream starts to soften.

Then using jaffa cake scoop ou some ice cream and ram into gob.

repeat until: -

1) you run out of jaffa cakes.

2) you run out of ice cream

3) both 1 & 2.

LOL, ok, my technique.......!!

1) Nibble around the outside, so you get sponge and choc only.

2) Separate the Choc Orange from the sponge.

3) Eat the sponge

4) Lick the chocolate off of the orange

5) Suck the Orange until it dissolves........


I LOVE JAFFA CAKES!!!!!

I think that Jaffa cakes are absolutley disgusting and 'orrible and should not be inflicted on ANYONE...

But because I am such a nice bloke I am willing to save you all, so send ALL your Jaffa cakes to:

Stretchie

Bristol

This is a goverment provided facility and as such it is the law that you send them all NOW, it is for your own good oh and we'll tax you on the postage too

Well i to used to be a lover of Jaffa Cakes... until i discovered Jaffa Cake Bars. OMFG!!!! They come in a pack of 5 and i gotta say that if i open a packet then they're all gone.

Also the "normal" jaffa cakes have been replaced with ones that say "even orangier" (or somesuch) on the packet and the orange bit tastes, well, too orangey.

Did you all know that the orangey bit is mainly made of apricots tho??? Strange but true. :D

A common urban legend, but actually not true.

Has anyone tried the Lemon & Lime Jaffa cakes? They're lovely. They did launch blackcurrant Jaffa cakes too, but they were just wrong and I think that they might have been withdrawn.
