Choose wrapped portions for a shared night-shift snack point if keeping each serving sealed matters more than getting a bourbon cream every time. Crawford's assorted case contains three biscuits per sealed pack and includes Bourbon Creams among six varieties; a standard bourbon-cream packet is the more direct choice when every biscuit needs to be a bourbon cream, but the opened packet needs suitable storage.
Sealed portions suit a communal tea point when limiting handling matters and a mix of biscuit varieties is acceptable. Crawford's assorted packs include Bourbon Creams, but not every portion is a bourbon portion.
A standard bourbon-cream packet gives you the named biscuit rather than an assortment. Plan how to store the biscuits once the packet is open if they will be kept for later shifts.
Check the current pack for ingredients and allergen warnings before sharing it. The Tesco, Waitrose and M&S bourbon creams described below have different ingredient and precautionary statements.
Choose when: A shared snack point needs sealed servings and a choice of biscuits is welcome.
Trade-off: Crawford's 100-pack case includes six varieties, so it cannot supply a bourbon cream in every portion.
Choose when: Getting bourbon creams matters more than having individually sealed servings.
Trade-off: The packet is opened to serve the biscuits, so follow its storage instructions for those left over.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Sealed servings | Check whether each serving is separately wrapped and how many biscuits it contains. Business Beverages and Vending Superstore describe Crawford's case as 100 sealed packs with three biscuits in each. | I want colleagues to be able to take a protected portion from a shared snack supply. |
| Bourbon content | Read the full assortment list, not just the words “mini-pack”. Crawford's includes Bourbon Creams among six varieties; Tesco and Waitrose name bourbon creams as the biscuits in their standard packets. | If I specifically want a bourbon cream on every break, a mixed case will not meet that need. |
| Portion and nutrition | Check biscuits per portion and compare the same nutrition measure. Tesco lists 3.5g sugars and 1.7g saturates per biscuit in its 296g pack; Waitrose lists 3.9g sugars and 1.6g saturates per biscuit for its 400g product. | A sealed pack can hold three biscuits, so I want to know what one pack contains rather than assuming it means one biscuit. |
| Ingredients | Read the current pack's ingredients and allergen statement. Tesco and Waitrose list wheat and possible sesame; M&S lists wheat, milk and soya for its Extra Cream product. | Before putting biscuits out for colleagues, I need to check the exact product against their dietary requirements. |
Crawford's case also contains Custard Creams, Digestives, Fruit Shortcake, Rich Shorties and Ginger Nuts. A colleague selecting a portion may get one of those varieties instead of Bourbon Creams.
Choose the assortment for sealed mixed servings; choose a bourbon-cream packet if the biscuit itself must always be a bourbon cream.
The Crawford's format is a 100-pack case, which may be more stock than one person needs.
Vending Superstore describes three biscuits in each Crawford's sealed pack. The amount in a serving is therefore different from taking one biscuit from a standard packet.
Check the biscuit count and pack weight, then use the exact product label when comparing nutrition.
Tesco and Waitrose list possible sesame, while M&S Extra Cream Bourbon Creams list milk and soya as well as wheat. Their stated nutrition values also use product-specific serving measures.
Read the current physical pack before serving someone with an allergy or dietary requirement, and compare nutrition on a like-for-like basis.
Its Mini Pack Portions are an assorted foodservice case suited to shared snack points.
Its 296g Bourbon Creams are a standard packet for a bourbon-specific snack.
Its Bourbon Creams come in a 400g standard packet.
Its 165g Extra Cream Bourbon Creams are a conventional packet for someone choosing that particular filling.
Its Tasties Bourbon Creams are a 300g bourbon-biscuit packet listed on Joybuy.
These are portion-format alternatives for a night-shift snack point, not bourbon-cream packets. Check the stated bag or wrapping format before choosing one for shared use.

The six-bag format offers separate bags for a shared snack supply. These are Mini Oreo biscuits, not bourbon creams; check the pack for ingredients and the contents of each bag.

For a shift snack, check the pack to confirm how the 16 wafers are wrapped. Bourbon is the brand here: these are matcha cream wafers, not bourbon-cream biscuits.

These are strawberry-flavoured Oreo sandwich biscuits rather than bourbon creams. If each colleague needs a sealed serving, check the current pack for the number and format of any inner wrappers.

The eight-bag format is worth considering when separate bags matter for a shared shift supply. Pocky consists of strawberry-flavoured biscuit sticks, not bourbon-cream sandwich biscuits.
No. Business Beverages describes Crawford's wrapped portions as a six-variety assortment that includes Bourbon Creams. Each sealed pack contains three biscuits, but choose a standard bourbon-cream packet if getting that biscuit every time is essential.
Follow the storage instructions on the exact pack. For an opened standard packet, check its directions for keeping the remaining biscuits in an airtight container; for sealed mini-packs, check the case's storage statement and best-before date.
Check the current product label against that colleague's requirements before serving it. Tesco and Waitrose list wheat and possible sesame for the products discussed here, while M&S Extra Cream Bourbon Creams list wheat, milk and soya; recipes and warnings can change.
