A cake goes hard when it is stale.
A biscuit goes soft. So technically, it is a crisp.
I dont get it. Although, they are only 78p a pack at the moment in asda.
edit: that is why jaffa cakes are cakes you see. So it cant be like a cake AND a biscuit because there are clear definitions to define so.

Jaffa Cakes were deemed
by the Inland Revenue, now HMRC, of being chocolate biscuits, biscuits are exempt, but chocolate biscuits aren't.
McVities decided to bake a giant Jaffa Cake to show it's a cake - and it is a bloody cake!

Its a cake because it goes hard when stale.

Who the hell makes this shit up?
Did they sit around a table one day, high on meths, saying "Shall we tax biscuits?"
"No, I rather like biscuits with my tea"
"But some of them have chocolate on..."
"Shit, you're right. OK, tax those little bastards then"
Bloody weirdos...
