Tim Tam International Marketing Manager Talyah Falabella spoke on the Tim Tam Sweet & Salty biscuits saying, "Tim Tam has been Australia’s favourite chocolatey biscuit for over 60 years, and we’re excited to bring this new, even more irresistible flavour combination to the UK. This biscuit was originally inspired by an April Fools’ prank on social that went viral. The demand from consumers to make this into a real product was so high we just had to make it a reality. Tim Tam Sweet & Salty provides the ultimate indulgence for sweet and salty lovers to enjoy by combining 2 favourite flavours together to create one irresistible biscuit."
