The Tim Tam Extra Chocolaty biscuits are headed to the UK from the iconic Australia-based Arnott's brand as an option for consumers to try out that maximize taste and texture in every bite. The biscuits feature the signature format of the original Arnott's Tim Tams, but are paired with a thicker chocolate coating that gives them a deeper, richer taste and texture. The biscuits are thus great for enjoyment on their own, with a cup of tea or as part of the signature Tim Tam Slam ritual.
International Marketing Manager Talyah Falabella spoke on the Tim Tam Extra Chocolaty biscuits saying, "We’re delighted to be celebrating our first Tim Tam day in the UK by bringing the first taste of Tim Tam Extra Chocolaty to the shelves of Waitrose & Partners, and look forward to sharing our most indulgent Tim Tam in the UK with their customers.”
