    First time I have ever heard of them, guess they don't sell them in the US, or maybe I just never heard of them to look for them.

    Jaffa cakes are great... the only problem is they're a bit more-ish. I couldn't sit down and have 2 or 3 with my coffee - I'd have to finish the packet. Guess it's their citrussy soft melt-in-the-mouth magic.

    Tim tams are more addictive than Jaffa cakes.

    Tim tams are nice as well, but jaffa cakes have a better nice/healthy ratio!

    I guess you can write about the giant Jaffa cake and other great snacks that were made large on PimpThatSnack.Com -

    The first thing I thought was "what the hell are Jaffa Cakes". But when I saw the picture of a packet, I remember eating them. The chocolate would melt in the New York climate and the jaffa cakes would stick together.

    They used to be available in the US. I believe that it had something to do with the high dollar at the end of the 80's. I don't know if they are still avilable? A case of henieken/becks was $12.99 and Benneton Stores were in every mall. Benneton stores are long gone and a case of henieken is $28.99

    We are living on the other part of the world where the name Jaffa cake is not known. Any idea of sending me a pack of cake so that I will write a honest review :p

    I was addicted to it when i was in England .
    You cannot stop eating until the whole pack is over :p

    They are like cross between cakes and biscuits and orange in flavour .:)
