Christmas Digestives

This new addition comes at the same time as the brand announced two new Digestive biscuit flavours for the festive season - gingerbread and Christmas pudding.

This isn't the first time this year that there have been new Digestive biscuits. Back in July, three new flavours were added.

The new biscuits were Classic Caramel Bliss, Heavenly Chocolate Hazelnut and Luscious Blood Orange flavours.

They are topped with a layer of chewy caramel, finished with milk chocolate and are available in 250g packs. McVitie’s says it considers the new snacks to be its “finest biscuits to date."

The products were chosen as the top three favourites out of options provided to participants in consumer trials.
