This McVities Jaffa Cakes Tube is designed to keep your beloved Jaffa Cakes fresh. It contains 15 Jaffa Cakes, each of which comprises a sponge cake base, a layer of tangy orange flavoured jelly, and a delicious chocolate coating.The infamous debate over whether Jaffa Cakes are biscuits or cakes actually found its way to court, the VAT man suggesting that VAT should be applied to what appears to be a chocolate covered biscuit (plain biscuits and all cakes remain exempt).Thankfully, McVities triumphed and Jaffa Cakes were proven to be cakes due to their tendency to go hard when stale (biscuits, in contrast, go soft) – thus keeping them free of VAT!

Tasty...but probably better in England
I was inspired to eat this by a video game. They actually refer to them as "Joffo cakes" but a little googling lead me here. They are a chocolate covered chocolate cake with an orange gel filling.Ordering them in the US (or equally distant location) means they will arrive a bit stale. It's not horrible, and I didn't get the sense that they would spoil soon, but it's noticeable enough to detract from the experience though not so bad that you can't imagine would they would be like in their native land.If you're the kind of person that likes fruit filled pastries of any flavor (but especially citrus fruits), you like oranges, and you like chocolate, then you'll probably like these.

The real deal-yummy!
Bought these as a gift and other than being a bit stuck together after we put them in the refrigerator, lol, they are the real deal.

JAffa's to go
We never had them in a "to go" box while in England - easier to reseal. My son loved them.
