The company have a variety of factories around the UK producing many of their famous products including Digestives, Hobnobs, Penguin bars, and Jaffa Cakes.

We visited their factory in Manchester to see how Jaffa Cakes are made. McVitie's produces 2 billion Jaffa Cakes every year from the Stockport factory.

Jaffa Cakes have been produced since 1927 and they consist of sponge, chocolate and orange flavoured jam.

We got to see the whole process from start to finish and also learned the answer to the age-old question about Jaffa Cakes, is it a cake or a biscuit?
