Hill Fruit Shortcake biscuits
I bought these Hill biscuits from Aldi. The first thing is that you get a very long packet, though the biscuits themselves are small. Perhaps they have too much of a snap for a shortcake. This is the start of the problem for the biscuit. It takes more like a Digestive without the oaty pieces in it; the creaminess of a good shortcake biscuit is missing. The fruit is lacking in sweetness, so effectively you end up with a kind of small - and they are small - Digestive biscuit with bits in it, not a pleasant experience. If you were looking for a better value biscuit like this, then simply buy a Digestive, they are available from Aldi too.
P.P. Just a warning: I found that these biscuits have a laxative effect which I put down to the hard currants and the wheaty texture of the biscuit.
