Mcvities, Rich Tea Biscuits, 10.5 Ounce

My mother was born and raised in England so I had been exposed to these cookies (biscuits to the Brintish) before they became famous as part of Prince William's groom's cake. These are plain cookie wafers without frosting, nuts, chocolate, raisins or anything else to mess them up. They have a nice buttery vanilla flavor without being too sweet or too dry or too vanilla flavored. They are somewhat fragile even when in the plastic tube, so don't drop the package. I enjoy these with tea or coffee and they are a delicious treat that is not too high in calories. They remind me of the arrowroot biscuits that we gave babies 50 years ago but they are softer and more delicate. I like them very much. They also worked well in Prince William's cake! I got the recipe from Oprah's website and made a copy of William's cake. It is basically broken "biscuits" (these cookies) and lots of butter and sugar and 12 ounces of dark chocolate. VERY good but I am not sure it is good for you!

Well prepared

Yum!!!

I ordered 3 and 2 came first. Then the third came in separate box. The third was crushed even though it was in a box and it smelled like perfume and was inedible. Not returnable.

I love which tea biscuits with English cheddar like my grandmother used to eat them. They were OK, but mostly crumbled up on the edges so I never had an entire biscuit. Please pack these appropriately! Remember that the weather extremes far exceeded anything in the UK, it gets extremely hot in the summer and extremely cold in the winter …. I won’t be buying from here again.

These tea biscuits worked perfectly in making the groom's cake used at the royal wedding. The cake was quite tasty, but one must keep in mind that the British do not sweeten their sweets to the degree that the Americans do. Still, it was fun and easy to make, and created enthusiasm for all of us who watched the 'wedding'.

My first British biscuit and I like it. As explained in the movie " Glorious Marigold Hotel " ( great movie ), dunking these in one's hot tea is a developed skill that is enjoyable and they taste good to boot.

My biscuits were in crumbles when they arrived. I believe I had a few solid ones for tea.

とある文章で、このビスケットの存在を知り、大変興味を持ちました。 その文章には 「（英国人から見た）外国人はこのビスケットの良さが分かっていない。水分が無いと口がパサつき、砕けたビスケットが上あごにくっつくからだ」 という件が書いてありましたが、まったくそんなことはありません。 砕けやすいのは確かですが、 味は程よいミルク味。 コーヒーや紅茶によく合います。 小さな子供も気に入りそうな味です。 送料を\1,500近く出して買った甲斐がありました。
