There's a difference between the taste of an American biscuit and a British scone. American biscuits are generally not sweetened at all and have a savory flavor which takes well to salty accompaniments such as sausage gravy. British scones are generally a bit sweet; American biscuits are generally unsweetened. The two are almost the same in concept, but it's just a question of whether the taste is primarily sweet or savory.

Biscuits are a flaky roll that pulls apart in layers and is normally made with quite a bit of butter.
