The spokesman continued: "We needed to ensure the sensation of eating the larger Jaffa Cake is similar to the smaller Jaffa Cake so all of our more hardcore fans will enjoy it as much as new Jaffa fans."
The cake is retailing at just £7. That might actually be the best seven pounds you will ever spend...
