Looking for a specific biscuit

Hi guys
I'm looking for a specific biscuit, which I cannot seem to find anywhere, despite having been looking for it for years.
There used to be a product from Fox's Biscuits. It had a yellow packet, and I'm pretty sure they were ginger biscuits. I'm not certain they were ginger "flavoured" though. The actual biscuit was about the same size as Digestives in terms of circumference, but slightly bigger in height. They tasted quite buttery, and the texture wasn't as firm as the new ginger biscuits from Fox's. They were fairly creamy/buttery, but had a much milder ginger notes (I think ginger) than the new ones.
I've tried Fox's Ginger Crinkles, (the red packet) but the ginger taste is much more pungent, and the biscuit is also much harder. It is also much smaller than the ones I'm looking for. I believe I've also tried the green packet previously, but those were even more darker in colour and had an even more deeper ginger taste.
I'm now leaning towards the product being discontinued. Can anyone shed some light?

Were they Fox's Golden Crunch biscuits? I remember them as having a very buttery/golden syrupy taste. Yum yum, one was never enough!"If you dream alone it will remain just a dream. But if we all dream together it will become reality"0

Were the biscuits you are looking for stored next to a packet of ginger nuts? That could be where the faint ginger flavour is from...0

Fox's Crinkle Crunch? I think there's a ginger one and a plain one.0

Try saying 'specific biscuit' twenty times rapidly with a mouthful of any of the biscuits. Start a new Youtube meme.0
