Effie's Homemade Cocoa Biscuit brings together malted cocoa, oats, and toasted coconut in a crisp, buttery biscuit with just enough sweetness. Equally inviting alongside afternoon coffee or topped with a creamy cheese, it offers rich chocolate flavor in a versatile biscuit made for snacking, pairing, and simple desserts.

Sensory Description:
Rich cocoa flavor is layered with toasted coconut and gentle malt sweetness. Oats contribute a satisfying crunch, while buttery richness rounds out the chocolate character. The biscuit stays crisp and lightly sweet, allowing its cocoa and toasted grain flavors to remain distinct.
Awards & Accolades:
- Gold: Specialty Food Association SOFI Awards, Cocoa Biscuits, 2020
Producer's Background:
Effie's Homemade grew from a family oatcake recipe passed down to Effie MacLellan in Nova Scotia and carried to her home in Massachusetts. Her daughter, Joan MacIsaac, and longtime friend Irene Costello built the company around that tradition, expanding from the original oatcakes into biscuits that emphasize simple ingredients, crisp textures, and a balance of buttery sweetness and savory flavor.
Serving Suggestions:
Enjoy at room temperature with coffee, tea, or cold milk. Top with mascarpone and fresh berries, pair with a rich triple-cream cheese, or add bright marmalade for a citrus contrast. Crumble over ice cream for a chocolatey, crunchy topping. Store in a cool, dry place and reseal after opening to preserve crispness.
