Jaffa Cakes Owners Send Cease and Desist Letter to Museum

  • The Bermondsey-based Peek Freans Museum unveiled a Jaffa Cakes exhibition on June 30, 2025, in London, which has since been removed.
  • McVitie's sent a strongly worded letter shortly after the exhibit launch, objecting to Jaffa Cakes being classified as biscuits due to their legal status as cakes.
  • The debate over whether Jaffa Cakes are cakes or biscuits is long-standing in the UK and continues to spark public discussion and social media reactions.
  • A McVitie's representative acknowledged their fondness for biscuits but emphasized that their definition excludes those with a sponge base.
  • The museum and McVitie's hope to reach an agreement soon, acknowledging they are "a nation of Jaffa Cakes lovers" despite the current exhibition's removal.
