Tim Tam

Tim Tam is an Australian brand of chocolate biscuits created by Arnott’s. They consists of two malted biscuits which are separated by chocolate cream, then coated in a thin layer of chocolate. Tim Tams were created by Ian Norris and named by Ross Arnott, who had named them after the winning horse at the 1958 Kentucky Derby.

Nowadays, the biscuits come in different varieties made with dark chocolate, white chocolate, caramel, and many more. There is also an interesting social practice known as Tim Tam Slam, when people drink a hot or cold beverage (coffee, port, hot chocolate, Bailey’s) through a Tim Tam.
