Take plain spritz biscuits if you mainly want a biscuit that the packaging says should be stored in a cool, dry place and sealed after opening. Spritz biscuits with milk chocolate are a good choice if you can also keep the chocolate away from sun and heat. If you’re looking for a gift or something to share in different flavours, choose a chocolate box and check the packaging and allergens for the exact variety.
