thunderbird13 Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 Excellent - I can see a whole new business opening up Quote

I am definitely thinking about making a Chocolate Bourbon, perhaps one day a Garibaldi. Quote
~tl Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 Maybe a stupid question... but what does it do? Quote

It has a nice smooth overdrive with a little bit of crunch, like a custard cream that has been left out of the biscuit tin for a day or so. Quote

silverfoxnik Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 They look so cool - well done!! You should definitely make & sell them; Basschat is a good place to start promoting that kind of idiosyncratic & individual product.. Quote
Dandelion Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 [u][b]BISCUIT FACT[/b][/u] The industry standard test to ascertain the difference between a biscuit and a cake is thus. Left in the open atmosphere of standard temperature and pressure, A biscuit will become softer. A cake however will become harder. This was used in the Jaffa cake affair to persuade the powers that be that their product was in fact a cake and not a biscuit, saving themselves a fair old whack in tax. Apparently, There is no VAT on cakes, but a chocolate covered biscuit attracts VAT as a luxury item. Quote
