About this product
Soft sponge cakes with a layer of orange jelly, topped with Milka Alpine milk chocolate. The orange flavor is the classic pairing behind the Jaffa cake name.
Each round cake has three parts: a thin sponge base, a disc of orange jelly made with orange juice concentrate, and a coating of milk chocolate made with Alpine milk. The cakes come in a 147g tray.
The name comes from the Jaffa orange, and the sponge-jelly-chocolate format is a favorite in cookie aisles across Europe. In Central and Eastern Europe, Milka's version sits next to the store-brand Jaffa cakes many families grew up with.
It is made by Mondelez International, the company behind Milka. Malincho sells it in the USA as an independent retailer.
Taste and serving ideas
How it tastes
Light and springy at the bottom, then a soft, juicy jelly with a sweet citrus note, then a thin layer of creamy chocolate. The orange and milk chocolate together taste a little like a chocolate orange, only softer and much lighter than a candy bar.
Ways to enjoy it
Set out a few with coffee or black tea when friends visit. They are also an easy addition to a kids' snack plate or picnic basket on a cool day.
For a quick dessert, serve two cakes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a little fresh orange zest on top.
Orange or raspberry?
Milka makes Choco Jaffa in orange and raspberry. Both share the same sponge and chocolate. Orange is the brighter, citrusy one; raspberry is berry-forward and a little tarter.
The orange jelly gets its color from carotenes, while the raspberry version uses carmine. If you avoid insect-based colors, orange is the one to pick.
