Tell me your favourite biscuits (and the ones you miss)...

[UrkStarkadder]

I got thinking about Gypsy Creams earlier, they were a great biscuit and I fancy one with a cup of tea.
Currently liking a custard cream or a fruit shortcake, but give me some inspiration! What are you partial to?

Borders Dark Chocolate ginger biscuits are fab but i love chocolate hobnobs best.

Fox's chocolate crunch creams.
Jammie Dodgers
Milk chocolate digestive
Fox's chocolate cookies

If you go to the museum in Reading, they've got a whole gallery on Huntley and Palmers, with shelves and shelves of biscuit tins and the names of loads of forgotten biscuits.

I quite like a Viscount - the chocolate covered biscuit with a layer of mint.

Is it worth getting to replicate the Abbey crunch geoffsbakingblog.blogspot.com/2015/02/abbey-crunch-biscuits.html?m=1

I don't eat biscuits often but do have fond memories of mint yoyos. Marks vienesse sandwich biscuits are fantastic dipped in hot tea 🤤

gypsy creams yes
years ago woolworths did amazing caramel biscuits sold loose by the pound never found them again when they refurbished store and stopped selling loose food items
lincoln biscuits

milk chocolate rich teas, the lesser known star of the biscuit world...

Cadbury’s Coasters

Is it me, or are biscuits not as good as they used to be?

My favourite is a chocolate hob nob, but I'm now fancying a dark chocolate digestive having read the thread.
I miss the sports biscuits, like party rings in taste but rectangular with a different sports scene on the back.

Also what were the iced mildy coffee biscuits called? They always seemed like and adult only biscuit.

I have a memory of a biscuit that had coloured chewy bits in, no idea what it was called but I would love to try it again!

Now....any brand of ham and cream ring - the Fox's Viennese finger version is particularly yum!
Reto - I think they were called Duchy? A plain quite crumbly buttery biscuit...i think each one had a scroll on it with the name of a county on. Got immense child like excitement if I got one with my home county's name on! Does anyone else remember these?

Ham and cream??? .. yuk!! I'd much prefer a jam and cream!!!

The humble bourbon will always be the King of Biscuits for me.

If I’m feeling posh, Cadbury’s Roundies are droolsome.

If I’m on holiday in France, chocolate Hit biscuits. I never buy them here, it’s not the same.

Proper Highland shortbread petticoat tails at Christmas.

And Cadbury’s chocolate fingers. A whole box, with a pot of tea, is the only remedy for PMT or a broken heart.

Partial to a malted milk here, good dunkability & affectionately called “cow biscuits” when I was little!..... & “Nice” biscuits 😀

Fox’s Classics are so good!

And Border’s dark chocolate gingers

Agree with borders dark chocolate gingers.
and shortbread
i do like hob nobs

My favourites as a child were Butter Osbornes. In my mid 50s now and I still miss them.

Chocolate florentines, by Fudge's, or M&S.

Absolutely delicious but I can't buy them as I'll eat the whole pack.

Also Jammy Dodgers and choc Hobnobs.

Agree with the PP who said biscuits aren't as good as they used to be - Trios used to be INSANELY good but now taste of nothing.

I wish Sainsbury’s would bring back the Ginger Crinkle ! A good every day biscuit with texture, bits if real ginger, nice and crumbly, unlike ginger nuts which seem to be held together with wood glue.

Does anyone remember those lemon cream biscuits that had a ‘flaky pastry’ type biscuit? Oblong shape, with little brown spots of melted sugar on them. My absolute favourite- haven’t seen them for years.

Treasure your biscuits. In Sweden we have shit biscuits - treasure your variety!

Are swedish people as fat as we are?

FadedRed Marks did something like that in different flavours fairly recently. Red currant might have been one of the flavours.

Who remembers Grannies Cookies? And Lincoln? Highland Shorties? Morning Coffee?
Can you still get Lemon Puffs? I don’t buy biscuits any more so don’t look at them in case I am tempted.
