In March 2024, the UK was treated to \u2018Aussie gold\u2019<\/a> as a snack from down under made its way onto supermarket<\/a> shelves.<\/p>\n

Tim Tams, which feature crunchy biscuit<\/a> and a cream filling all covered in a smooth chocolatey coating, launched here for the very first time, landing in Waitrose. <\/a><\/p>\n

Prior to this, Australians<\/a> had been enjoying the sweet treat since 1964, when it was introduced by biscuit company Arnott\u2019s. <\/p>\n

In the UK, Tim Tams have been sold in original, dark chocolate and chewy caramel flavours over the last year, but now a new flavour has hit the market and it\u2019s one fans have hailed as \u201810\/10\u2019, \u2018a dream\u2019 and \u2018the best\u2019.<\/p>\n

Shoppers at Tesco<\/a> can now get their hands on Sweet & Salty Tim Tam biscuits<\/strong> – a unique product inspired by another iconic Australian snack. <\/p>\n

Those who can\u2019t choose between sweet and savoury foods won\u2019t have to as these combine the classic Tim Tam fillings, with a savoury cracker nestled between the layers.<\/p>\n

In Australia, these crackers are inspired by Jatz biscuits, also made by Arnott’s, which look rather similar to a Ritz biscuit. <\/p>\n

The Sweet & Salty flavour first began as an April Fools prank on social media, that caused such a stir that Tim Tam made it the real deal in 2024.<\/p>\n

Finally, the product has made its way here, with limited-edition packs selling for \u00a32.50 in Tesco supermarkets, while stocks last. <\/p>\n

Talyah Falabella, Tim Tam International Marketing Manager, says: \u2018Tim Tam has been Australia\u2019s favourite chocolatey biscuit for over 60 years, and we\u2019re excited to bring this new, even more irresistible flavour combination to the UK. <\/p>\n

\u2018This biscuit was originally inspired by an April Fools\u2019 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.;<\/p>\n

She added: ‘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.\u2019<\/p>\n
