    I think I've seen some in Montreal, maybe they were import from GB, but I'm not a cookie/biscuit fan.

    Watched code never compiles.

      I've seen things pretty close here in the US and also in South America, but I'm not sure why anyone would eat them! After all, we have Oreos[^] and coffee.

          Probably, there are a few that fit the description and picture, but the variant lemon cream is a firm favourite of mine and very common here.

              In Kerala (India), people just call them cream biscuits or cream centered biscuits. Here in the US, I guess they'd be called cream filled cookies (like Oreos).

                None from Indian companies (that I'm aware of), but I've seen some of those on the supermarkets in the waitrose section (UK import). I've tried some biscuits from waitrose and I thought they were good. I also picked 4 cans of waitrose drinking chocolate recently because it was very good. At office, I drink this instead of tea or coffee. Are these custard creams any good? Worth trying? :)

                There must be dozens of Indian brands. This is just another term for "Cream biscuits".

                    Probably not, but I wanted to be sure. I thought you lived in rural Illinois and was surprised they'd have an Indian store there.

                        Oh okay. It must be someone else I had in mind then. All I remember is that it was an active SoapBoxer (the classic one, not the new versions). 2 Indian markets in a 40K population is surprising. Is it a college town with 100s of Indian students and professors?

                          Oreos are terrible. You'd never find one in my biscuit tin; although the biscuit tin is usually empty as I will have already eaten all of the biscuits so you'll not find anything in there!

                              it's a suburb of Raleigh/Chapel Hill/Durham, so there are three big colleges (NC State, UNC and Duke) in the area and tons of tech jobs.

                                    No, it is different than a regular cream biscuit. It is made from custard powder so it tastes a lot different than the cream biscuits you find in the market.

                                        No, it is different than a regular cream biscuit. It is made from custard powder so it tastes a lot different than the cream biscuits you find in the market.

                                          Close but a pretender - either McVitie's digestive (plain or chocolate) or Jacob's fig rolls. One has stadards to maintain. :-D
