A cake-sized version of the Jaffa Cake is on sale in UK supermarkets from today (April 10)

Named 'The Big One', the treat is effectively the same as a regular Jaffa Cake - with dark chocolate, sponge and an orange jam filling - but significantly larger.

I was not told either. Now at work and want one. Need one, now.

Delivery to choke-on-stench anyone?

Then why comment on a thread so blatantly aimed at Jaffa Cake fans? Or is your opinion too important to be hidden from the internet?

Something I haven't seen here in the US (might be available, but never saw it), but it does look tasty!!!
Could one of you fax me one and I'll fax you the money right back.

wwooooaahhh I didnt realise the jaffa cake was so sacrosanct,

in my defence the title was ambiguous, it didnt warn me of jaffa cake content, nor was there a disclaimer stating that only comments permitted be in praise of that nasty (supersized) processed synthetic circular nugget of cat faeces

next youll be telling me that only +ve comments be allowed on 29er threads

I'd be more worried if everybody started to agree about it to be honest

I'm a jaffa cake fan, but that's just wrong. The top bit, for example: it's got cake in it? No no NO. Wrong. The top bit is the jelly, not cake. Jelly in the middle? And the ratio of choc (I use the word advisedly) to cake is far too low.

No. This is a heresy, designed to cash in on the foolish.

Not one crumb of that filthy abomination shall pass my mouth.

Besides, I doubt they sell them here in Spain.

That takes the old 'is it a biscuit or is it a cake' debate out the back and shoots it in the head.

can someone have one and let us know what it's like?
I daren't buy one for fear of it being rank.
you'd be able to tast the individual bits too much won't you?
it's like eating the cream out of a custard cream and then the biscuit on its own - it doesn't taste good, but together they're immense.

did there used to be jaffa cakes that came in a dark red packet? what were they?

I believe they are layered, so you get a taste of each component in every bite.
