Background I'm not someone who normally buys biscuits on a regular basis, apart from the ginger nuts and chocolate digestives so loved - and consumed - by my men folk. For myself I really prefer something homemade. There are times, though, when having a large tin of biscuits available is a distinct advantage. This happened for us recently, as my husband was responsible for hosting a training event with an expected attendance of 30 or so.

Mistaking me for a Greedy Fat Pig, a relative bought me a packet of these for Christmas. I wouldn't ordinarily buy these biscuits, but have made a good effort at eating them, without much help from my stick thin wife.

The biscuits I have are contained within a pretty hexagonal blue tin with rounded corners and the whole item looks rather attractive.

It's described as an indulgent selection, so taking my lead from this ...  Read the complete review
