Effie's Oatcakes (6 Pack), Effie's Homemade

Absolutely delicious!!!

I love Effie‘s oat cakes, but this order was terrible. Boxes came crushed and so were the cookies inside. See picture below.

Best snack. Salty hearty graham cracker. Oatcake is my favorite

These are really delicious and I've ordered them several times. There are always some that are broken. I can ignore that, as I usually break them in half to eat them. But several times they are ALL broken and many are reduced to crumbs. (See picture.) I'm sure it's a problem to ship them, as they are somewhat fragile, but if they're proud of their product they should protect them with bubble wrap and tack on the $0.10 so people can enjoy them. They aren't cheap, so I'd assume customers who will pay that price wouldn't mind a little extra so they receive biscuits instead of crumbs. With that fixed, they would be 5 stars.

My wife and I discovered Effie’s Oatcakes last Christmas while we were visiting her sister. They taste amazing. They are actually like cookies in terms of taste and like crackers in terms of shape - nothing like cake at all. These are known as biscuits in Great Britain and are often served with afternoon tea. They are moist, but have a nice crunch that bursts with flavor with every bite. We enjoy them, as the British do, with hot tea, but you can eat them as a snack or dessert with milk or coffee. They are somewhat expensive - A little less than $6.50 for a box of 22 when you buy them in a 6-pack from Amazon, compared to $7.99 a box at Whole Foods, but worth every penny. Unless you are wealthy, I suggest you buy them for yourself (and your significant other if you have one), as a guilty pleasure. Children won’t appreciate them as anything more than a cookie and will eat up a box in one sitting. These are meant to be savored, not gobbled up.
