I have started a new job and been given the extremely important task of going to the shop to get biscuits for the staff room at lunchtime. I want to make a good impression with my taste in biscuits. Please help! (I’ll be getting about 4 packs)

For a mixed group - I'd go with Bourbons, Custard Creams, Choc Digestive and Ginger Nuts

I’m not a teacher her but I’d probably get hob nobs, choc digestives, Maryland cookies and shortbread or something else non chocolate

Bourbons.

Although I think chocolate digestives won the last poll.

I would mix it up.

So - packet of posh chocolate ones (either a tin with all different ones or quadruple chunk cookies or similar)

  • plain ones like hobnobs


  • Jaffa cakes (because everyone loves them)


  • something with caramel or lemon, like the borders ones (they do butterscotch chip or lemon drizzle)

Sainsbury Oaty biscuits are absolutely delicious, and very cheap. They definitely have the best cost to performance ratio of any biscuit I've ever tasted.

Mint Oreos!

Make sure at least one packet is dairy free (Oreos and hobnobs) for any colleagues who don't eat dairy :) that kind of thoughtfulness will go a long way!

Anything by Fox's and if you buy digestives, they must be McVitie's.
