As an alternative to the many biscotti snacks on the market that are made with sweet additions like nuts, chocolate and berries, the Great British Biscotti Co. created a piquant Jalapeno Cheddar flavor that it calls its "most feisty biscotti to date."
The spicy biscotti snack boasts a fusion of South American and English flavors and has been recognized as a winner at the Great Taste Awards. As Paul Rostand of the Great British Biscotti Co. describes, "traditionally biscotti have been applauded for their heat insulating properties that allows them to be dunked into frothy coffees with impunity, so we wanted to turn that notion on its head and create a biscuit with inner heat."
Some of the other new savory biscotti flavors that the Great British Biscotti Co. has launched over the past year include varieties like Wild Garlic & Rosemary and Sun-dried Tomatoes & Olives.
