Jaffa Classic Orange Jelly Chocolate Biscuits, Serbian 150g (5.3oz)

Jaffa Classic Orange Jelly Chocolate Biscuits 150g are round biscuit bases topped with a disc of orange jelly and coated in dark chocolate — the Serbian Jaffa biscuit, the Yugoslav-era confection that Bambi produced in Pozarevac and that has been one of the most recognised sweets in the former-Yugoslav diaspora pantry for decades. Jaffa is produced by Bambi, the major Serbian confectionery company whose Pozarevac factory has made this biscuit-jelly-chocolate combination in continuous production since the 1960s, when the format was introduced to the Yugoslav market and quickly became embedded in daily life as the afternoon coffee biscuit. The Serbian Jaffa is culturally distinct from the British Jaffa Cake — same concept, different country, different formula, and in the diaspora community a product with its own specific emotional weight, the biscuit that Serbian, Bosnian, and Croatian households recognise immediately on sight. Dunk in coffee or tea as the classic Balkan afternoon biscuit, set on a plate for guests as the Serbian sweet that needs no introduction, or eat as the orange-jelly-and-chocolate combination that is softer, fruitier, and less chocolatey than any candy bar equivalent.
