Arnott’s has been busy working its magic, reimagining some of Australia’s favourite classic biscuits to inspire a completely new format – chocolate blocks and bars! Arnott’s Chocolate will be available in five of their classic biscuit inspired flavours; Iced VoVo, Scotch Finger, Wagon Wheel, Ginger Nut and Jatz.
With over 150 years of biscuit baking expertise, and more than fifty years of chocolate knowledge, Arnott’s has developed a smooth and creamy chocolate, and blended it with real biscuit pieces to create a totally new chocolate experience. Inspired by the delicious tastes and textures of iconic Arnott’s biscuits, Arnott’s Chocolate is a perfectly indulgent chocolate treat.
Pauline Mercier, Arnott’s Marketing Manager said, “There’s no denying Aussies’ love of Arnott’s biscuits, or their love of chocolate. We wanted to combine the two and give people the best of both worlds and a new way to enjoy Arnott’s!
“We’ve selected a range of flavours that we know Aussies are sure to love – whether it’s the delicious buttery crunch of Scotch Finger, the undeniable Wagon Wheel combination of biscuit, raspberry and marshmallow, the ever-humble coconut and raspberry from Iced VoVo, or the sweet and salty with Jatz, there’s something for everyone. We are sure there will be plenty of debate about favourite flavours – especially with those Ginger Nut lovers out there!”
Arnott’s senior communications manager Amy Wagner said the launch of the chocolate marked a special day for the brand.
“It is a brand that has been around for 150 years…and has been in the homes and hearts of Australians for decades,” she said.
“Arnotts is one of those brands that is synonymous with our culture and our life and certinaly it’s there for all occasions but one occasion it hasn’t been in, is the chocolate occasion.
“Which is why we’re so incredibly excited today to bring some of our most iconic and well loved flavours and biscuits into chocolate.
Arnott’s five new chocolate blocks & four new bars are made in Australia using sustainably sourced cocoa. (NB. Arnott’s Chocolate Ginger Nut is not available in bar form).

Hi I thought I would try 2 of my favourite flavours.
Love the Iced Vo No love love love love love.
Wagon Wheels as one of my most favourite things was very disappointing to say the very least. I get the taste of the biscuit and chocolate and that’s it.
Will not buy this one again.
I actually thought this would have been the easy one.
Cheers

Just shared a block of the Wagon Wheels. Magic. Off to buy some more. Keep it up.
We tried the ginger chocolate bar, sorry to say, we will not be buying it again,NOT enough GINGER flavour in it, All we got was plain chocolate.with a few crunchy bits in it!!!! ☹️
At $5 for 170gm — too expensive! Will only buy when on special. Otherwise a good idea.
Tried the gingernut, Not a strong taste of ginger, The dark chocolate is to strong
Every shop that you state that sells your chocolate bars only seem to have them for a short time here in Victoria. I want to buy them especially the Butternut Snap and Scotch Finger flavours. I and some of my friends love these bars and would buy them if we could find them. Very disappointed.
