Biscuits are thin, flat, and vary from crisp to hard. Sweet, pain, or
savoury, take your pick!
Cookies are thicker and softer, with a slightly chewy texture.
Scones are light and fluffy in texture, and either oven baked or baked
on a girdle.
Oatcakes are thin, flat, crisp, and baked on a girdle! They're neither
biscuits not scones, they are a law unto themselves...
Soda breads are heavier than scones, but still delish...
And stottie cake is a oven bottom baked bread (traditionally turned over
half way through cooking) with yeast, and the best thing in the world
for making sandwiches! Oh, except Chelsea buns...
