Xaccers Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 They confuse me greatly. They taste like a cake, but they are sold by a biscuit company. Is this just beyond my comprehension since I'm not a jolly old Englishman?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaffa_Cakes#Cake_or_biscuit.3F  Cake or biscuit?  Under UK law, no VAT is charged on biscuits and cakes — they are "zero rated". Chocolate covered biscuits, however, are classed as luxury items and are subject to VAT at 17.5%. McVitie's classed its Jaffa Cakes as cakes, but in 1991, this was challenged by Her Majesty's Customs and Excise in court.[4] This may have been because Jaffa Cakes are about the same size and shape as some types of biscuit. The question which had to be answered was what criteria should be used to class something as a cake or biscuit. McVitie's defended the classification of Jaffa Cakes as a cake by producing a giant Jaffa Cake to illustrate that their Jaffa Cakes were simply mini cakes.  They also argued that the distinction between cakes and biscuits is simply that biscuits go soft when stale, whereas cakes go hard. It was demonstrated that Jaffa Cakes become hard when stale and McVitie's won the case.[5]   Jaffa Cakes 1 - HMRC 0 RESULT! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EmptyChambers Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 I was able to get them at a standard grocer. I suspect I kind of got raped in terms of price. Roughly $4.50 so like 2.4 pounds? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hitmanNo2 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 It's put into perspective when we pay £12.95 or $26.50 for 12x assorted Krispy Kreme donuts, when I seem to recall 12 KK donuts in the US cost $5.99 or £3 pretty much. Personally I would never spend £1 on a donut, but clearly some people do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Kinda like how a Galaxy MP5k clone costs about 20 quid in HK, and you guys pay... how much? Â Â But then again, you get Jaffa Cakes, so it balances out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
