The devil's dessert

I have finally managed to remember the name of the confection that has been plaguing me for ages now. And thy name is Tunnock's Tea Cakes!
They're British. I'm Greek. In Sweden. I can't have them! I am desperate. This is probably the tastiest, most sinful chocolatey and marshmallowy little sugary seductress I have ever tasted. And I don't throw these terms around lightly, you know! It's a sin they're not available here...

hey! those are 'tête de nègre'!! i won't translate as it is a very politically incorrect name ;)
and btw i ran across some in the grocery store the other day and thought of you... they're not called that anymore, i guess even the french have gone pc

Hey you know, I am in Britain.Tea cakes are everywhere, not just this brand. I could send you some if you want them that much! (Really!) I do have a DEEP understanding of culinary obsessions and their importance for our wellbeing. I am sure you understand. (Greetings from the Mourga blog ;-) )
