Callie's Hot Little Biscuit Crackers are a series of Southern-inspired snacks making their way to Publix locations in the US to support consumers seeking out their next favorite snack this fall. The crackers come in two flavor options including Sea Salt and Sharp Cheddar, which are both made with leftover biscuit dough that's on its third roll-out. This dough is often discarded because it has been overworked and will likely result in a tough biscuit, but makes for the perfect cracker dough.
Callie's Hot Little Biscuit Crackers are arriving at Publix in 4.5-ounce pouches and boast an ultra-crispy texture that will satisfy consumer cravings for crunchy snacks. The product is also great for pairing with dips, topping with cheese and more.
