OutByEaster? Posted March 2, 2023 Moderator Share Posted March 2, 2023 The fig roll looks to me like it was once part of an infinitely long fig roll and that what I have is a slice of this magical Uber fig treat. I want one that's four feet long. Similarly, I'd quite like an A4 Garibaldi. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The salted caramel (I know, I know) version of these are neither particularly salty or caramelly but they are awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other good biscuits have coconut. It’s a science fact. Is there not a American delicacy biscuits and gravy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
