History
A sweet, dessert-style cocktail.
McVitie's Jaffa Cakes consist of a sponge base with a tangy orange jelly center, all coated in dark chocolate. In 1991, these snacks successfully appealed against a classification by UK Customs & Excise that would have deemed them chocolate biscuits. Unlike cakes, biscuits were categorized as luxuries and therefore subject to Value Added Tax.
