If you live in the UK you'll recognise the name, and the concept, BUT...


THEY*VE GOT CHOCOLATE ON BOTH SIDES, NOT JUST ON THE TOP!

WAaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGFGFHJKJLK N

Jaffa choco sound delish! As for my fave bisquits, they have to be those strawberry jam ones from the bakery opposite my house.. Yum! Unfortunately i haven't got a picture of them.

Mr Kipling Viennese Whirls are amazing, just no contest twinned with a cup of tea in some fine china

Anyone remember Otis Spunkmeyer(!) cookies? It was a franchise I think, you could buy 'em freshly baked in cafes etc.

Totally AMAZING when you bite off either corner, dunk em in coffee and then suck it like you would a straw. lol

[gen-eral]

As for me either ginger nuts and a glass of milk or orange clubs were a childhood favourite.

Ever tried 'Nice' biscuits?

aye, nice are great. as are pink wafers, fig rolls, garibaldi and all the other minky biscuits that only i seem to like

[thepigjockey]

'Minky', now that's a word that doesn't get used enough lol
Is there anyone else who likes 'Nice'?
I have to agree with you on Fig rolls, they'r top, no matter what anyone else says.
http://www.jacobfruitfield.com/img/fig_img.gif

[adsr]

I buy these and a 1/2gallon of milk(lactose free)
when I'm in a super good mood:

http://tonova.typepad.com/thesuddencurve/images/oreos-thumb.jpg

of course I don't feel so super good
after I've eaten them...lol..

oh they sound good. ive never even heard of them. im just away to have some fruit shortcake, another classic

[V Knid esq]

I feel the wafer biscuit is underrated. OK it's not for tea dipping but the fun of the layers is endlessly enjoyable, whether pink, caramel or the yellowy chinese melon flavoured ones

[thepigjockey]

Dip wafers in your coffee...

OR... put the biscuit ON TOP of your coffee. Can't believe no-one's mentioned these yet (stroopwafels):

http://www.gevalia.com/Gevalia/images/product/large/1369_large.jpg

Oh dear. I think I just had a biscuitgasm.

ive been eating biscuits all day because of this thread-totally ruined my dinner!

[Paddy]

i like many variations of biscuit, but i don't really have a sweet tooth anymore so i don't eat biccies that often.

[adsr]

I can't believe I almost forgot my absolute favorites that I only eat when I visit Puerto Rico because I can only find them there..:

behold the mighty teacake

god bless my granny RIP

[cut out]

agreed. the teacake craps all over the wafer, which tastes pretty artifical really. lovely texture though.

JOEP-BISCUIT-TRUFAX:

Due to the Mars company ill-fated and ill-advised change of name to 'BELIEVE' during the world cup to support the England soccer ball team up here in Scotland people are now shunning said confectory vis a vis deep frying. Now the battered and deep fat fry squads are having deep fried tunnocks wafers. That is all.

[cut out]

pretty fickle, eh.

I've just discovered these particularly brilliant wafers in our local Turkish supermarket. I swear the Turks are the absolute dons of the dessert, and these are really a cut above your average wafer, and delightfully dinky to boot.

I can't find the coconut flavoured ones online but they're the nicest flavour of them all.

You think so?? All around my quarter i can get Ülker stuff, and i think they taste dry and horrible......

Me too - why is it that the older you get the less you like sugar and the more you like savoury things?
I couldn't eat a whole bar of chocolate anymore without feeling sick

hobnobs.
hobgoblins.
goblins.
goblin's nobs.

good word association biscuit combined with excellent flavour.

Don't like the strawberry ones at all, and the banana ones are slightly odd, but the orange ones are nice and the coconut ones are really nice?

[Ladytron]

Ulker are everywhere but definitely not the best. there are so many better wafers or napolitanki as we call them here.

[Jeniffer Mills]

But Knid, you know what Ülker biscuits are good for? Take the double ones filled with cream, and crumble them into ice cream! MMmmmmmm....Birilliant! :)

[V Knid esq]

Sounds good. The orange ones, I have just discovered go REALLY well with a nice glass of cold Chablis.

@Ladytron you may be right, it may be that it was just over excitement at a new discovery, and perhaps they're not as good as e.g. Garden Wafers but I do really like the cocount ones.

[Ladytron]

the only 2 things i don't like/eat are coconut and walnuts. yuk! i hate that taste.
