Arnott's Creams

I don't often purchase biscuits but thought I'd get some Arnott's cream biscuits for convenience. They were family favourites as a child. How disappointing. They are terrible tasteless cheap rubbish. Shame on Arnott's for disgracing the brand that once produced quality products.

I purchased some shortbread creams, a childhood favourite. I was so disappointed with the taste, bland dry waxy and sort of like margarine. Just a waste of money and not at all as they used to be.so very sad.

Firstly I didn’t recognise the packet. It was oval instead of rectangle. When I held the packet, they were smaller. Open up packet and they are thinner. It is Disappointing.

Arnott's - Just another great iconic company ruined by GREEDY Americans! Just like Cadbury, Arnott's is now a shadow of its former self & specialise in low quality products, but swear black & blue, to us ...the consumers, that they haven't changed the recipe or altered the ingredients. It's an insult to our intelligence & just shows the type of beast, we are dealing with! BOYCOTT ALL ARNOTT'S & CADBURY PRODUCTS, untill they change back, to what they once were!

Arnott's creams are so bad now. They are so small, taste dry and not good. Paper thin amount of cream in the Kingston and Monte Carlo. No more.. I think aldi brand is so much better and before I thought the opposite. Shame on you Woolworths and Coles for selling this crap. Bearly even human grade food.

Just bit into a farm bake chocolate chip fudge. Tasteless hard in the middle lacking flavour.

I intend to take them back to where I purchased them from and ask for a
Refund they are that bad

I've bought our last pack of the shortbread cream. It's obvious that the recipe has changed. Texture and taste are now sadly lacking. I hope it changes back or a competitor makes them the way they used to be.

Absolutely disgusting. Why change an iconic biscuit!? Who ever is running Arnott's should be sacked... all their biscuits are disgusting and un edible now. Don't waste your money, you will only be disappointed.

Overall assessment: totally disgusting. It's being generous to say that the flavour is remotely reminiscent of coffee; really it's just a bland doughy bitterness. And it doesn't even have that nice light texture of the original biscuit. I can't believe they thought it even remotely passed any kind of flavour test, and would sack the marketing team/taste testers that developed and approved this one. Tiramisu may sound like a crowd pleaser, but if you can't execute it well it's just shooting your brand in the foot to release it.

The mud cake version of the shortbread creams is just awful. The taste is seriously bad to the extent I spat it out and the packet went into the bin. I'm not a very picky person. Who did the thinking behind this? And who did the taste test? Stick to what you do best and ditch the effort to bring all latest taste fads to your biscuits. It hasnt worked and just makes you ordinary - actually, less than ordinary. Turned me off your my favourite shortbread creams.

Sadly Arnotts have changed the recipe for the biscuit in the shortbread cream. Its not the soft fluffy crumble biscuit it use to be. Over the years one by one all of their biscuit recipes have changed, and certainly not for the best. Why change a winner Arnotts!! To save a few cents perhaps but unfortunately you have just lost another very disappointed customer.

When did Arnott's shrink the Shortbread Creams? I used to love these biscuits. Now, meh. If the company changes the size, shape, flavour, and everything else that is familiar and good about the "old" biscuit, what's the point of continuing to buy them? There is no point.

the thing i am not impressed about it they reduced the amount from 6 to 4 pieces in a packet for the same price you use to buy the original 6 pack disgusting what dont they make enough money not worth the price you pay for

Just had a try, not nice at all. The taste of biscuit was not like it usually is. The biscuit part was not like it usually is, also the jam lacked a chewy texture. Have the ingredients changed! Anyway I will give them a miss in future, as will my mum who also commented on them.

My husband loves the Kingston's & my favourite is the short bread creams. I do not buy any other brand of biscuits. I also buy the Monto Carlo biscuits as well.
