Every now and again an email will land in my inbox which I don’t entirely believe was meant for me. And until I make sure it’s actually addressed to “Jenny” and not “Jessica” that super big powerhouse of a blogger do I let myself believe it. Biscuiteers are a brand I’ve seen everywhere online – even featured in extremely popular YouTuber’s vlogs and I’ve always admired them from afar, in awe of their incredible biscuits and the exquisite icing skills of their bakers. Like most people, I love cake, biscuits and all sorts of sweet treats but very rarely can I ever treat myself to anything a bit more on the luxury side. Money is tight, you get me. You’ll find me with a choc roll and a cuppa tea, not usually with a tin of these incredible biscuits. So when I was contacted and asked if I’d like to receive one of their tins, I was thrilled (and a bit confused because as we’ve establish, I have a bit of imposter syndrome).
I was sent their Fruit Basket Luxe Biscuit Tin* which is marketed under their “get well soon” range but of course can be gifted for a variety of occasions. The idea being that when someone’s ill, the age old tradition is to give them grapes or fruit but who wants fruit when you could have a whole tin of biscuits right? (No hate on grapes, I actually really like them). This particular tin retails at £45 but you can find tins for more or less on their website.
The biscuits themselves come in a really lovely, sturdy and aesthetically pleasing tin which helps keep the biscuits really fresh for a longer period of time. It includes 16 biscuits, all vanilla flavour and all hand-iced to look like different pieces of fruit. I gotta say, there’s only 4 of us in my house an 16 biscuits didn’t last very long! They’re very moorish!
Each biscuit is so carefully iced, the time and effort that gets put into each and every one is outstanding. The biscuits themselves are fairly thick and you get a really good amount of icing on top as well – which is brilliant for me because the icing is always the best part! The vanilla comes through lovely and the icing and the biscuit really compliment each other and just like that… I’ve turned into Paul Hollywood.
Biscuiteers sell every type of design you could possibly want. From Christmas, birthdays, new babies, Halloween, weddings and more. As well as chocolates, cakes, gluten free and the option to personalize some of the tins. As a gift, I’d definitely be very happy receiving one of these and if you’re looking for something a bit different to gift a loved one this Christmas, I would definitely 100% recommend Biscuiteers!
Have you ever tried Biscuiteers biscuits before? What sort of design would you go for?

I’m totally digging this design, so cute!!
It’s so pretty isn’t it!
Gosh these look so good, they look like they should be digital art or something, not actual icing! These are such a great gift idea, and pretty unique as well!

Right! They’re ALMOST too good to eat 😂
So cute! I’d love these as a get well present- much better than grapes.

Definitely – no offence to grapes but I’d rather biscuits!
These sound so good! My sister is gluten free, and always looking for tasty desserts. Biscuiteers sounds like it could make such a perfect gift for her. 🙂
I’m sure they do Gluten Free ones! I should have researched into that more and mentioned it more!
I love the Biscuiteers Biscuits – they’re so yummy and always so pretty x
They’re almost too yummy!
Whaaat those are biscuits?! They look absolutely beautiful, and it’s weirdly coincidental that my friend has booked afternoon tea with me at one of the Biscuiteers cafes (if that’s what you call them?). I really can’t wait to go now! I’m tempted to buy this tin for my mum but she hasn’t got that much of a sweet tooth… Was the icing very sweet? I am a bit worried because of there being a thick layer of it…
Awh have an amazing time at the cafe! I wanna see lots of photos 🙂 it was quite sweet yes!
how CUTE are these!? how cool 💖
Right, almost too cute to eat!
They are so pretty it would nearly be a shame to eat them.
It was a bit of a shame actually haha!
They look so good but very expensive! I wonder if they do vegan ones? Xx
I think the price is totally reasonable for what you get. I’m not sure about Vegan ones if I’m honest x
Oh wow these are absolutely gorgeous! I love the creative take on gifting someone fruit as a get well soon, I love grapes too but would much prefer these! Lucky you!

Aren’t they! They do some utterly stunning Christmas tins too!
These look absolutely delicious! I’ve been wanting to try biscuiteers for a while, they always look so beautiful and clearly a lot of time and effort goes into each one xx

I’d definitely recommend them, they’re SO yummy!
I remember seeing your photograph of these on Instagram a little while back and falling absolutely in love with them. They look amazing, and sound delicious! While I wouldn’t usually fork out £16 on biscuits, mostly because I can’t afford to, these would make the PERFECT Christmas gift for my parents. Thank you for writing such an in-depth review!
As a Christmas gift for someone else, I think I’d justify the price. I wouldn’t spent it on myself but then again I never buy anything for myself anyway!
Oh wow, they look absolutely incredible! I might have to get some for over Christmas.

They’d make the perfect Christmas pressie 🙂
Jenny, that basket looks so incredible! Lucky you! You deserve it thought. Hey I like your profile picture as well.
Thank you 🙂
I absolutely love this idea, it’s much better than the standard of always sending someone flowers! The biscuits seem really high quality and probably so delish!
They definitely were very high quality! Super thick and just YUM.
Wow these look stunning! Never heard of them before but will be visiting their website straight away!!!
Hope you don’t fall down the rabit hole!
I have never heard of these before but HOW CUTE!! Such a great idea for someone who needs a treat or to let them know you’re thinking of them x
Oh my god really?!
You have made it Jenny! These biscuits look beautiful! Congratulations, hope you are feeling super proud. Lovely review too. I have always wondered about the flavours and they always look so delicately designed. A wonderful treat to be able to review something like this and 16 of them! Very kind of you to share.
Congrats again and thanks for sharing.

Thank you 🙂 They definitely taste as good as they look!
These almost look to good to be real! They look so yummy!!!
They really do!
Lovely photos! Wow those biscuits are pretty! The tin is really nice too. Definitely a lovely present for someone. I haven’t heard of Biscuiteers before, I will have to go and have a look. Congratulations on the surprise parcel and enjoy the rest of your biscuits (unless they have all been eaten already… for review purposes!)
They were eaten MONTHS ago 😉
OMG, these look incredible! Too good to eat. Well, almost!
Misa | theunicorngirl.co.uk
Haha, almost! 😉
These biscuits look amazing! It’s such a sweet idea, I know I would much prefer a nice looking tin of colourful tasty biscuits over fruit any day. I imagine these tasted fantastic with a cuppa. Lovely review and gorgeous photos Jenny! <3 xx

Oh they really did – dipped in a cuppa too!
That would make such an amazing gift x

These look so beautiful, and the tin they come in is gorgeous! These would make the most wonderful gift for someone, 💜✨

I’m hoping to reuse the tin for something too!
They look absolutely delicious! I did, at first think they were bath bombs because they’re so bright and vibrant in colour but wow! I wouldn’t want to eat the biscuits because they look too good to destroy! But if they tasted as well as they looked I can well understand how all 16 didn’t last too long ha!

Haha I can totally see why you thought that!
These look delicious Jenny! I love how delicately they’ve been decorated and will be looking at getting some for Christmas.
I hope you do! They do some stunning Christmas tins!
Wow they look amazing! I’ve seen so many amazing designs from Biscuiteers and they always look too good to eat. They’d be the perfect gift. I wish they had some free from options x

Do they not? I should have mentioned it in the post!
These biscuits look absolutely delicious, I’ve seen them in vlogs but never tried them myself. I think this box is a wonderful idea for a gift or a treat to yourself. Congratulations for getting to work with the brand.

Thank you 🙂
I’ve seen so many people try these but I had no idea they did these ‘themed’ boxes too! This is such a lovely and unique get well soon gift. Glad you enjoyed them and channelled your inner bakeoff judge too haha – thanks for sharing! Xx
Most of their boxes are themed, they’re amazing! I’d make a wicked judge hahaha!
I haven’t heard of this brand before but these buiscuts look so lovely! They would be perfect for a gift and as Christmas is coming up I would love to see if they have any chritsmas cookies! They actually look too good to eat, great post xx
They do! They have loads of Christmas themed tins!
This is amazing! I haven’t heard about Biscuiteers before. The biscuits look so delicious. As the Christmas is near I would definitely get them in Christmas theme. x
Antonia || Sweet Passions
Their Christmas ones are stunning!
OMG look at those beauties! They look so perfect! I have never been to Biscuiteers although I have seen them all around social media! I definitely need to go to the café now!
Perfect is a good word for them 🙂
This look absolutely delicious 😍
I can confirm that they were 😌
How amazing do these biscuits look?! These are definitely classed as one of my 5 a day!
Love, Amie ❤

Hahaha I thought so too!
Really convenient that they ship worldwide – usually baskets like this are kind of limited to a specific region!
The tins are really sturdy so worldwide shipping should be no problem.
These are the cutest biscuits that I have ever seen, and that’s coming from me, a non-biscuit person! At first I didn’t even think they were biscuits because how well handcrafted they were!
Haha someone else said they thought they were bath bombs!
Haha, wow!! I guess they just look that adorable!
These are the cutest biscuits I have ever seen haha! They look so well designed and so colourful. I can see why they’re under their get well soon range, the bright colours and designs would definitely cheer someone up when they’re not feeling too well.

Right! Literally I don’t know how they ice them so well, I can’t even draw that well on normal paper 😂
Oh my gosh they look and sound AMAZING.
I think this would be a wonderful gift to receive. I’ve had a look through the website and the Christmas ones are adorable.

Oh I know, they do a Nutcracker tin which I’m DYING for!
I want the mittens they’re so cute!
ahhh these look so yummy!! I’ve never heard of a biscuit tin, but what an amazing idea!
They’re a fab company 😌
I’m like you, I have admired their biscuits from afar as they are definitely a luxury to me! They always look beautiful and I can imagine they were equally as delicious too! 🙂

They definitely did taste as good as they look! 😌
These biscuits look delish! Congrats on getting to work with Biscuiteers. I’ve heard them being mentioned in lots of vlogs too. They are a bit on the expensive side but totally worth if you want to treat someone, or yourself of course! I definitely think they’d make a nice present. They’re so detailed and I really admire how much work has gone into them. They look almost too good to eat!!
I think for the amount you get, it’s quite reasonable! There’s SO many in the tin 😌
