Is a Jaffa cake a cake or a biscuit?

its in the biscuit section in the supermarket but its not very biscuity, but its called a cake and yet its not very cakey...

It's a cake

question answered ✅

Cake...... duh.

pretty self explanitary on the packet

One of the most hotly debated points of all time, this, because of the way tax is paid differently on cakes compared to biscuits.

Entire inquiries have been held, with evidence presented, to try and prove which way around it is. Seriously! And it is still subjwct to change. McVities say cake, the authorities still think biscuit.

The basic rule is normally that a biscuit goes soft when stale and a cake goes hard. Just to be a pain, jaffa cakes do both.

lol i know.

It's a cake because it goes hard (as all cakes do) when out of date a biscuit goes soft. 😖mart:

the makers defined it as a cake so they defined it as a cake so no VAT would be payed where as if it was a biscuit it is considered a luxury item and therefore subject to VAT ✅

Damn.... You beat me..... I was going to post that..

I believe at one point McVities created an enormous jaffa cake to prove that it was a cake... and that the ones in the packets were simply small ones.
