Interesting about whole aisles in supermarkets being devoted to biscuits - when in the UK a couple of years ago we were interested to note very few biscuits compared to NZ supermarkets while other baking such as cakes etc were prolific.
What we did appreciate was the range of fresh baked desserts with real cream as opposed to the ersatz stuff here. Only in posh bakeries do we find fresh cream any more - pretty sad for what used to be a major dairy producer!
