Got a sample with my order and made the biscuits. Makes a lovely Ginger biscuit with a little heat. Great alternative to just adding ginger to the recipe
Easy and quick to make, a wonderful flavoured biscuit - with a kick.
We're really pleased to hear how much you love the wonderful, warming kick in these ginger biscuits - they look fantstic!
Absolutely delicious - even better than Borders and that's my highest ginger biscuit accolade. Proper levels of ginger, spicey with a bit of heat and great texture. Afraid there's no picture because we've eaten them all and husband has just ordered another and bigger packet of blend.
Makes a great ginger traybake as well - with lemon and ginger icing.
Delicious with a hint of heat - makes a nice change from standard ginger biscuits. Made 24 using a round tablespoon measure. Very moreish!
We're really happy to hear how much you enjoyed this month's free sample, Fiona - thanks for your great review!
This spice mix is sensational. The buscuits were easy to make....the smell, texture & flavour are glorious. The flavour develops as you chew them....warm spicy heat. The mix is a must for winter days. Great blending The Spicery!
Thanks for your lovely review, Rob - we're so pleased to hear how much you loved this warming, wintery biscuit blend!
Received a free sample with my last order. Cooked up a batch of cookies using the recipe leaflet enclosed - very easy indeed and results were absolutely delicious. My son said they were the best ginger biscuits I’d ever made! I shall be ordering more!
Hooray - we're so happy to hear how much you all loved this free sample! Thanks for your lovely review!
Double ginger!! My son, Gavin, made these - lovely and chewy in the middle with a real fiery kick!
Haha - great photo, he looks chuffed to bits! We're so pleased to hear how much you loved these ginger biscuits.
Just the right amount of spice. Delicious with a coffee
They look perfect, Catrin - and we're loving your beautiful mug, too!
Fresh out of the oven batch of spicy ginger biscuits. These biscuits are delicious with the right amount of heat.
We're so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed these biscuits, they look fantastic!
Here lies a cautionary tale with a happy ending. Due to the fact that some days, I'm not wholly concentrating when I should, I mistakenly made the spiced biscuits with a pack of 3 portions instead on one. Yup. I actually ate 2 biscuits and enjoyed them even though they were sooooo spicy. It was then that I realised my mistake. Tch, silly me. Rather than continue and possibly irritate my gut (an age thing) I crumbled the biscuits and stirred through lightly whipped cream. 5 hours later, I had a delicious desert. Next time, I will certainly make them with just one portion, maybe even 2. Hmmmm - living on the edge eh? Thanks The Spicery, we love your company and products.
Crisis averted! We're so happy to hear how much you enjoyed these biscuits (despite 3x the spice level!) and great job thinking on your feet to rectify the situation - the creamy crumbled biscuit dessert sounds delicious!
Just the best biscuits around! We have invited the family round to share and packaged some up for gifts... we always rave about The Spicery and after they approved of the biscuits we hope you'll have a few more followers in the New Year!
Those biscuits look delicious. Thank you so much for spreading the Spicery word!
Brew o'clock
