Why do biscuits travel when cakes do not?
Because nothing in them is wet. A cake is sponge, cream and fruit, and every one of those is a clock: the cream softens, the fruit weeps, the sponge dries. A spiced biscuit under royal icing is dry on the inside and dry on the outside, so there is no moisture moving anywhere and nothing to go wrong in a van or a letterbox.
That single property decides what this kitchen can and cannot send. A cake goes in a car to an address within an hour or so; biscuits go anywhere, keep for weeks, and are the honest answer when somebody asks for something to post to a relative at the other end of the country.
Piped by hand, or printed?
Piping is slower, costs more and looks hand-made — which for a wedding favour, a christening or a name is exactly the point. Each biscuit is outlined, flooded, left to set and then detailed, and no two are identical. For twelve of something it is the better choice.
Printing wins on detail and on volume. An edible image holds a logo, a photograph or fine lettering that no piping bag can match, at £1 a piece from a sheet costing £20. For forty branded biscuits going out to clients, printed is both cheaper and more consistent, and nobody at the receiving end is counting brush strokes.
What should go on them?
One idea per biscuit. A boxful where every biscuit carries a different simple motif — a tree, a wreath, a car, a star — reads as a collection; a boxful where each one has a scene on it reads as a muddle, and takes four times as long to make. The same is true of colour: two or three across the whole box, repeated, looks designed.
Christmas has the dates to order by, Christmas decorations what holds on what, and the caramel-filled cookies are the other biscuit here, sold by the kilo.
