Australia’s famed Tim Tam chocolate cookies are coming back to the US!!
Earlier this year, Pepperidge Farm tested sales of Tim Tam cookies at Target stores and pulled the product off shelves at the end of March. Now, after months of missing Tim Tams here in the States, Pepperidge Farm is set to unveil the wonderful Australian cookie once again sometime in October.
The wait will soon be over and Tim Tam cookies will be had by all! Thanks Cecilia!
The last case of American Tim Tams is up for auction on eBay and it is personally signed by Australian actor Hugh Jackman. As some of you may know, Tim Tam cookies were available for a limited time in the US exclusively at Target stores from November 2008 to March 2009 (it was distributed by Pepperidge Farm in the US). There hasn’t been any word yet on how well they were selling, but I suspect that many people who picked them up fell in love with them right away. Anyway, there are currently no plans for Tim Tams to make a permanent US stay, so if you’re in the US, this may very well be one of the last chances you’ll be able to pick up an entire case of them. Plus, the good thing is that the proceeds of this auction will go to Feed America, the nation’s leading hunger-relief charity. [via]
It’s been a very long time since I’ve had Royal Dansk Danish Butter Cookies and I almost forgot how delicious they were until I was gifted a box from Flo recently. I ate the whole tin in about 2 days which is probably bit more than recommended for daily intake.
Seriously though, these are some of the best cookies you can buy. If you’re ambitious and daring, you can buy the 3.3 Pound Tin and see how long they last in your possession. Mmmm!!
Lawrence tipped me off to a new shipment of authentic Australian Arnott’s Tim Tams at the Tuck Shop so I immediately went over to pick up a pack. As of about 8PM last night, there were still quite a lot left in the shop, but knowing the popularity of these chocolate biscuits, I wouldn’t wait too long to go get ‘em.
Also, I picked up a pack of these so that I could compare the packaging when I get the American versions from Target from Flo.
