Tiffin (confectionery)

Tiffin is a form of cake-like confection composed of crushed biscuits (most commonly digestive biscuits), sugar, syrup, raisins and cocoa powder,[1] often covered with a layer of melted striped chocolate. Unlike regular cakes, Tiffin does not require baking. Instead, following preparation of the mixture, the confection is chilled until set.[2] As a consequence the product may also be known as "fridge cake" or another similar term.

For other uses, see Tiffin (disambiguation).
