What do you call this biscuit?

[MickiQ]

Dunno, around me biscuits tend not to survive long enough to waste a name on them.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

An abomination.

Is is an icy nipple shortbread tasty thing?

 

[hitmouse]

Needs an option adding for "another Scottish crime against food".

I wonder if they'd be nice deep-fried? Do you reckon they serve them in Biscuitville?

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Either that plate is tiny or else it won't dunk in a mug of tea and therefore is not a proper biscuit anyway.

Yes, it's two shortbreadish biscuits sandwiched together with jam with icing and a jelly sweetie on top. I mean what's not to like???

I think they're probably way down the hierarchy when it comes to that.

Why are Belgian buns called what they are?

I don't know. But when my BIL revealed that he called a German biscuit a Belgian biscuit, this was raised as an important point. He calls it a Slovenian pizza or a Lorne sausage or some other complete nonsense.

Empire biscuit. I don't even like them that much but I really want one now

Maybe they were also called German buns until WWI in solidarity with plucky little Belgium.

Are you just making stuff up now?

 

[danny la rouge]

Maybe?

Are you just making stuff up now?

Well, yes. But I’m basing it on the history of the German biscuit. So it’s an educated make up.
