Jaffa Cakes were first introduced in 1927 in the UK by McVitie and Price. The company coined the name after the Jaffa oranges used in the biscuit size cakes that consists of 3 layers, the base made of Genoise sponge, a layer of orange jam and topped with melted chocolate.

Here Chef Tejasvi makes an orange jelly and tops the baked sponge with this jelly. This simple yet delicious treat can be both a cookie or cake. What would you want it to be?
