Australia's number one biscuit revealed

Australia's favourite biscuit has been revealed. 

Arnott's sold more than 300 million packets of biscuits this year, and they have been tracking what has been sold the most. 

Now they have revealed the 10 most popular biscuits in their range - and it is not surprising that Tim Tam Original was the most popular biscuit in 2024. 

Despite previous complaint's of the price increase this year, the biscuit is still well-loved by Australians. 

The popular snack was followed by Barbecue Shapes, Chicken Crimpy Shapes, Pizza Shapes, and Jatz. 

In the last year, more than 13.4 million packets of Barbecue Shapes and more than 5.5 million gluten free biscuits were bought. 

While the original Tim Tam's took the number one spot, the double coat Tim Tam also went up in popularity taking the sixth spot, up from the eighth spot in 2023. 

Salada Original took the seventh spot, followed by Mint Slice, Scotch Finger, and Monte Carlo. 

“There’s nothing like a fresh bikkie debate to start the week and everyone hoping their favourites will make the top 10," Ranita Cowled, Business Director for Treating at Arnott’s told news.com.au

“Whether it be our iconic bikkies like Monte Carlo and Scotch Finger, or crowd favourites Jatz and Barbecue Shapes, it’s clear Aussies love a mix of classic, sweet, and savoury in 2024.

“It’s fitting to see that as we close out the 60th birthday year for Tim Tam that the Original flavour has taken out the coveted #1 spot!”
