I have a craving.
A craving for Coffee Scrolls. Does anybody else remember these biscuits with the blob of pink icing on top?
They tasted of cinnamon and were dotted with raisins. I used to eat them by nibbling all around the edges, saving the icing in the middle til last!
I don’t normally do our family grocery shopping, but last time I went I searched high and low for Coffee Scroll yumminess. Nothing even came close.
I must have been living under a rock (or not doing the grocery shopping) because apparently it’s been quite a few years since they were taken off the market.
According to the Arnott’s Facebook page, I’m not the only one who has been missing them, but sadly, sales dropped which meant it wasn’t worth their while to produce them anymore.
Hooray for the age of the internet though because LOOK WHAT I FOUND!
Somebody has gone to the trouble to create and share their version of the famous Coffee Scroll – so pop on over to the Sweet Perfection Cakes blog to get the recipe. I’ve printed it out and will be making it very soon!
Do you have a favourite biscuit or food that is no longer produced?!
