its nothing to do with the EU actually. was a high court ruling in a case against HM revenue and customs over VAT payments. VAT was payable on chocolate covered biscuits but not on cakes.

Love Jaffa cakes and Elizabeth Shaw orange chocs and orange matchmakers.

Mc Vities in Park Royal, London?

One of my high school friends dad worked at McVities and they lived close by, when I used to go over to her house, as soon as you got of the train you could smell biscuits in the air, yummy!

'''It took 20 years for Customs & Excise (now HM Revenue & Customs) to acknowledge their mistake and eventually admit that teacakes were really chocolate cakes after all. This was in spite of a European legal case had already ruled that Jaffa cakes were cakes, and not, as had been classified, biscuits. ''

it did go on appeal to the European court of Justice. But that was a ruling not a directive.
