I first found them in taiwan, and they became my favorite cookies right away. They just call them cookies in Taiwan. Then I found them in thailand, where they are called cookies. And everywhere I’ve found them since they are just called cookies, I’ve never come across any special name for them.
Do you know one?
AI says “gem biscuit”, which is ringing a bell. I might have seen the word gem somewhere before on a bag of these.
ooh, snaps, thanks. I thought ginger snaps were those broader, flatter ginger cookies, do those have a different name in your area?
like these:
No, a snap is just a small cookie edible in a bite or two, at least in my area.
Okay, thanks. Apparently they’re “a hundred in the mouth”, cien en boca, in Latin America, or “florets”, which I think are taking the lead in interesting names so far.
Little flowers makes sense.
You’re right, a Very fitting name. The most suitable so far.
