While I was on my recent work trip to Poland, an email popped into my inbox asking if I'd like a delivery of biscuits to celebrate National Biscuit Day, which was on 29th May. This made me chuckle because I didn't know such a thing existed but I knew the Madhouse kids would think it was a great idea.
Sure enough, Sophie sent me a picture of the selection when it arrived, with a cheeky comment about not being sure there would be any left by the time I got home !
McVitie's also carried out a ‘biscuit census’ to mark the occasion and uncover what people's favourite biscuits reveal about their personalities. According to the poll :

Describe themselves as ‘fun-loving’

Not sure how accurate that is but I must admit, I'm rather partial to a Jaffa Cake (or three) myself (and I still do that thing where you eat the chocolate, then the sponge, so that all that is left is a sliver of orange jelly on your tongue !) so I was suitably wowed when this arrived in the post this week. How cool is that ?!
This was to celebrate the launch of the McVitie’s Sweeet Shop which has just opened. You can head to www.mcvities.co.uk and enter the Sweeet Shop to order a personalised pack of Jaffa Cakes, just in time for Father’s Day... or just get some for yourself !
Disclosure : McVitie's kindly sent through the biscuits as a gift.
