Hi Eileen

A UK coeliac here.  

Just out of interest, when you eventually find yourself in the gluten-free aisle at the supermarket I'd like to know if they are now selling Gluten Free Tim Tams in Oz?  I lived in Sydney for a few months back in the 1980s and loved them!

Arnott's, the company who make Tim Tams have a *fantastic* gluten free biscuit range in Australia, which includes: Choc Ripple, Mint Slice, Shortbread Cream and Scotch finger biscuit flavours.

Personally, I've only tried the Choc Ripple gluten free variant and the chocolate biscuits were really firm (not crumbly) and had a lovely cocoa flavour. I couldn't tell they were Gluten free! I will add, I hadn't eaten a biscuit for 2-3 years prior to devouring a packet of the Gluten Free Choc Ripple biscuits over a two day period so make of that what you will. 

I imagine one day, gluten free Tim Tams will appear in Australian Super markets.

Thanks so much, Nightranger - it all sounds delicious!  I hope too that our British (sort of) equivalent, the Penguin, will one day be gluten-free!
