Jammie Dodgers Minis Raspberry: Portions, Label and Tea

Jammie Dodgers Minis Raspberry: The Biscuit That Travels, in summary: Six sealed 20g bags of bite-size raspberry Jammie Dodgers, drier and firmer than the big round and built to survive a rucksack. The brand labels them suitable for vegans; pour a slightly stronger cup than usual.

Last reviewed by the teas.co.uk team in September 2026.

This box is really about the bag rather than the biscuit. Six sealed 20g portions keep a fragile filled shortcake whole in a school bag or on a walk, and each one is small enough to finish in a sitting, so nothing is left behind to go soft.

Smaller, drier, firmer

The recipe is the familiar one, two rounds of shortcake with raspberry flavour apple jam between them and the heart cut through the top, but the small size alters the texture. A little round gives up more moisture in the oven than a big one, so the Minis come out drier and firmer, breaking cleanly where the full-size biscuit crumbles. Each bite carries more shortcake and less jam, and the fruit reads milder.

Across a whole bag the sweetness adds up to roughly what one full-size Dodger gives you, simply because you eat several. What the format really multiplies is the moment where crisp biscuit meets soft centre. A big round offers it once; a bag of minis offers it again and again, which goes some way to explaining why children get through a bag so readily.

The label and the box

Six bags of 20g make 120g in the box. The number of biscuits in each bag is not published, so we do not give a figure. The published ingredient list puts the raspberry flavour apple jam at 23 per cent, coloured with anthocyanins and annatto, while wheat flour, sustainable palm and rapeseed oils and sugar make up the shortcake around it.

The allergen statement lists wheat (gluten) and sulphites and adds that the biscuits may contain egg, milk and nuts. Separately, the brand labels the raspberry Minis as suitable for vegans. Anyone packing for a child with a nut allergy should read the may-contain line on the current box rather than rely on the vegan label, since the two answer different questions.

Built for bags, not cupboards

Buy these for places that are hard on a packet: the school bag, the car door pocket, the bottom of a rucksack on a long walk. A sealed bag comes through being sat on, which a loose biscuit does not. In the cupboard at home the wrapping matters far less, and the standard raspberry packet or the Jumbo is the more sensible buy.

Skip the dunk; nothing in the bag is thick enough to last in hot tea. Brew the cup a little stronger than usual, four minutes rather than three, because the drink has to last across several small bites rather than one or two. Raspberry has no sharp edge to fight the tannin, so a plain breakfast tea with milk needs no other adjustment.

FAQ

How many biscuits are in a Jammie Dodgers Minis bag? The count per bag is not published. Each bag weighs 20g and there are six bags, 120g in all.

Are Jammie Dodgers Minis Raspberry vegan? The brand labels the raspberry Minis as suitable for vegans. The published allergen statement also carries a may-contain warning for egg, milk and nuts.

Do the Minis taste the same as normal Jammie Dodgers? Close, but the small rounds are drier and firmer and carry less jam per bite, so each one tastes more of shortcake.

What should I drink with raspberry Minis? A breakfast tea brewed a little longer than usual, with milk. For children, a glass of cold milk does the job.

Are Jammie Dodgers Minis good for travelling? Yes. The sealed bags keep the biscuits whole in a rucksack or car, which is exactly what the format is for.

Curator's note: Tuck a couple of bags into the walking kit and forget about them until the flask comes out. That is the whole point of this box; at home, buy the big packet. Lee, teas.co.uk, Tunbridge Wells.
