Biscuits for Business...?

I read a funny article t'other day on the BBC about how biscuits are key to clinching business deals, but only if they are the non crumbly type and definitely not digestives, well unless they are covered in chocolate.

This news follows the results of a Holiday Inn survey where they asked 1,000 business professionals on their thoughts. Out on top were chocolate digestives, shortbread and hobnobs, closely followed by jammie dodgers and bourbons.

Anyone who has been to the Gemini PR offices will know that we like to have a selection of delicious delights on offer for our visitors, and we ask you to look beyond the humble biscuit in favour of fresh muffins, morning pastries and chunky cookies. We have found these go down very well indeed, despite being a little harder to eat delicately.

Incidentally, meeting biscuit etiquette suggests two biscuits from a communal plate is the most acceptable amount...good job we wait for guests to leave before we ahem, dispose of the spares!
