Created by Izy Hossack from Top With Cinnamon, the DIY Chocolate HobNob Biscuits are inspired by the [classic British store-bought cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/british-shortbread-cookie-collection). The tea-accompanying treats are adapted from Kate Doran's Homemade Memories. To try these homemade tea biscuits, you will need baking powder, baking soda, golden syrup, light brown sugar, quick cooking oats, salt, unsalted butter, wheat germ and wholemeal flour for the base. The [chocolate coating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tim-tam-extra-chocolaty) is made from chopped chocolate (dark, plain or semi-sweet depending on your preference) and either coconut oil or butter. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 39% | Activity: 47% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Homemade Tea Biscuits:** Discovering new DIY recipes for classic treats like these can lead to a rise in interest in home baking and small-scale artisanal food production. - **Tea Time Treats:** Developing unique variations on classic tea-time treats can lead to successful disruption in the snack food industry. - **DIY Baking:** Greater access to recipes and video tutorials for DIY baking can disrupt traditional packaged food businesses. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry can capitalize on greater interest in homemade and DIY recipes by developing and selling new DIY baking products and ingredients. - **Snack Foods:** The snack food industry can capitalize on tea-time nostalgia and the popularity of baked goods by developing new snack products inspired by classic tea-time treats. - **E-commerce:** The proliferation of online DIY recipe repositories and tutorials offers a significant opportunity for innovative e-commerce platforms that cater to home bakers and small-scale food producers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Oat-Rich Cookie Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcvities-hobnobs-oaty-cookies.md) - [Tea-Infused Fruity Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teafusions-waffle-cookies.md) - [Artisan Tea-Infused Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/earl-grey-white-chocolate.md) - [Branded Tea-Themed Cookbooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brew-bake-sip-savour-cookbook.md) - [Tasty Triple-Chocolate Biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcvities-seriously-chocolatey-digestives.md) - [Biscuit-Flavored Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcvities-ice-cream.md) - [Premium Tea Time Biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foxs-fabulous-chocolatey-indulgent-creams-biscuits.md) - [Ancient Grain Tea Biscuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ancient-grain-tea-biscuits.md) - [Simple Ingredient Biscuit Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/realfoods-by-organico-biscuits.md)
