what were the biscuites that had jam down the middle and pink marshmellow either side coated in coconut?

Apparentlly they are called Mikado according to that biscuit website. But I remember them being callend Jamboree. My Nan use to work in a buiscuit factory and we used to get loads of them for free. You can still buy them in Tescos.

If you live in a relatively big city, check out the Irish section in any of the bigger supermarkets if you want to buy some.

I remember biscuits with pink marshmallow and coconut coating on one side - called Iced Vovos I think (they didn't having icing).

When I was a kid, these biscuits were known as "Hairy Mary's"......don't ask me why!

They are Jamboree's, they still sell them at asda. We love them at work and have Jamboree time with a cup of tea everyday, It's a bit of a team activity.
