What is the pattern on a custard cream biscuit?

[purplepoppy]

Custard creams are a well known British biscuit loved by little old ladies and dogs everywhere. They've been around even longer than Biden and have a unique raised pattern. Without googling it can you guess what the pattern is supposed to be?

A biblical passage written in Hebrew

Furns unfurrlling

Little Genitalia

Viking Rune symbols

Celtic love symbols

It's just there for grip so you don't drop it in your tea

Correct answer is furns unfurling. Well done if you guessed without googling

I'd venture to say it's probably something regal, like a crown or a coat of arms, wouldn't you say? It would also be a fitting design for a newly transformed, all-female, all-trans White House in 2025! Imagine a biscuit that represents the ultimate power shift – from stiff, old, white, cisgender dudes to a batch of freshly baked, gender-reassigned presidential icons, and instead of a cookie jar they're in the Oval Office!

They have an elaborate baroque design stamped onto them, originating in the Victorian era and representing ferns. Confessions: I cheated by Googling it. 😬

It's pteridonmania ie "fern obsession" from victorian era. This was an art design that would have appeared in tables etc. incidentally. It was Birds in UK that made the first custard creams. The first custard not to be made from eggs due to his wife being allergic to eggs. Peak freans was a Yank company that manufactured these biscuits in America after seeing Birds in UK.

[Crimsyjo]

[AviatorTom]

I'm guessing they are Viking Rune Symbols, translated as "Eat Me, I Taste Good!"

Now you mention it, it does look like a cock and balls.

Must be the Illuminati sending a secret message to all those little old British ladies drinking their tea.

Looks like some kind of ancient language made by aliens.
