If you ask us about some of the best Australian treats to gift and send overseas, we must recommend the Tim Tam biscuits. Created in 1958 by Ian Norris and inspired by the British "Penguin" biscuits, these crunchy chocolate biscuits went on sale in 1964.
But wait a minute, don't let your friends eat a Tim Tam like any other biscuit! If they want an authentic Aussie experience, they have to try the Tim Tam Slam; that is, drink their coffee, tea, or hot milk through the Tim Tam, as if it were a straw. To do this, they should bite two opposite corners and dip one end into the drink, sipping from the other end. The crunchy inner biscuit will soften while the chocolate coating begins to melt... at that glorious moment, they can start eating the biscuit. Simply delicious.
In addition to gifting these iconic biscuits, we have a suggestive and fun print to add to your gift and brighten up any wall in your home.
