    New Brexit approach - have a brownie and eat it!

    Crumbs! Judge deems brownie a cake and exempt from VAT

    A health food brownie containing dates and brown rice bran has been deemed a cake – and therefore exempt from VAT - after a judge taste-tested the product alongside Mr Kipling’s French fancies and Tunnock’s teacakes.

    Pulsin could reclaim up to £300,000 from HMRC after Judge Amanda Brown ruled in the Gloucestershire-based manufacturer’s favour, saying the company’s Raw Choc Brownies would “absolutely not look out of place” at “a cricket or sporting tea”.

    Brown dismissed Pulsin’s claims that the brownies were “not sweet enough” to be considered confectionery, on which VAT is charged, but said this did not exclude them from being cakes.
