Jaffa Cakes are a popular snack originating from the United Kingdom, featuring a light sponge base, a tangy orange-flavored jelly center, and a smooth coating of dark chocolate. Although often debated whether they are cakes or biscuits, they are commonly enjoyed as a sweet treat. Jaffa Cakes are typically made with ingredients like wheat flour, sugar, eggs, orange concentrate, cocoa solids, and a small amount of oil or fat. They are relatively low in calories compared to heavier desserts, with each Jaffa Cake containing around 45 calories on average. The dark chocolate provides a small dose of antioxidants, and the jelly offers a hint of fruity flavor. However, they are high in sugar and low in fiber, vitamins, and protein, making them more of an indulgent snack than a source of substantial nutrition. Moderation is key when enjoying this classic treat.
