The Jaffa Cake is neither cake, biscuit, wafer, or cookie.
The Jaffa Cake is a fibrous amalgamation of processed grains and what may be cardboard (speculation), artificially flavored with one or more chemically produced additives and in some cases, mutated fruit particles, the resulting polymerized blend is then covered with a plasticized brown coating. This coating is advertised as chocolate, however, it is in reality a waterproofing and sealant used to maintain the appropriate moisture content of the inner material. Although not regarded as an edible food source in most cultures, they understandably are quite popular amongst Brits.(Primarily the English), as most English find food stuffs such as kidney stew, mutton, and even spotted dick a treat. Having eaten a sample or two, my recommendation is to stay clear of them. If they were food at all, the Two Fat Ladies would have featured them on a show.
