German term

Dauerbackwaren

German to English Other Nutrition Nutrition
From a list of different food items that contribute to sugar consumption. I think they are something like dry, baked goods (cookies etc.) that have a long shelf life, but what is the equivalent term in English?
Proposed translations (English)
5 hard-baked goods
4 +8 long shelf-life bread and confectionery or biscuits
5 cakes (or biscuits) that keep
3 Biscuits
3 preserved baked goods

Biscuits

In American English, but the connotation is hinted, not blunt like the German. Biscuits are the only bakery goods held in air raid shelters, etc. and they last for years. It may need an explanation in the translation.

Thanks a lot.
agree Alison Schwitzgebel : Ah, the Sunday crew is there again - and at that time in the morning too! Yes, this is the best way to translate that simple little German term. Don't you love it when the Germans have one word and we need a half dozen ;-)
