Finnish Jaffa Cakes & Oreos

While in the supermarket in Helsinki, Wingkit and I came across some Finnish versions of British/American favourites.

First up, Domino’s which are basically Oreo’s. These were vanilla with a toffee centre. The biscuit bit was crunchy, as expected and a bit lighter in shade of brown than Oreo’s and a bit sweeter I think overall. Quite tasty, but then most chocolate biscuits are.

The Vadelma-leivoskeki were basically Jaffa cakes but instead of having that orange jelly bit in the middle, it was raspberry! The sponge of the Finnish ones were spongier and less dry than the British ones. These too were really rather tasty.
