Tim Tams are cookies. They are basically two thin biscuits, filled frosting, and covered in dark chocolate. They are much more distinctive than they sound. The distinctive pleasure of a Tim Tam is to nibble off each end, hold it in your mouth, dunk it partway into a mug of tea (or coffee) and use the Tim Tam as a straw. This method is even described on their website. Quite fun, and the "used" Tim Tam is amazingly delicious. (Manufactured by Arnott's, an Aussie company owned by Campbells.)
Violet Crumbles are candy bars. They are honeycombs covered with dark chocolate. They have a marvelous crunch, and nothing to do with violet whatsoever (besides the package). They are most similar to - but much better than, in my opinion - Cadbury's Crunchies. (Manufactured by Nestle.) |
