I read about this in a QI book i got at Christmas. There officially Cakes.

Cakes and biscuits are exempt from export tax in the UK but chocolate covered biscuits are not, so McVities had to prove it was a cake. It rested on what happenes when they go stale, a biscuit will go soft and soggy but a Cake (and Jaffa Cakes) will go hard.

Also, the orangey bit is made of apricots and not oranges.

I love my some biscuits. Some biscuits and gravy, not just any gravy. Squirell gravy. That is the shiznit.

They're cakes. The're net even like biscuits, except for the size. The taste and texture is just like compact cake.

I'd call them a biscuit but apparently I'm wrong :(

"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."

I had to laugh at this. This has to be one of the best serious defenses in court I've ever seen.
