How to Serve Bristot Premium Biscuits
1. With Coffee or Espresso:
Pair Bristot biscotti or shortbread with our St Ali, Dukes, Bean Cartel, or Proud Mary coffees for a Melbourne-style café moment at home. The biscuits’ delicate crunch makes them ideal for dunking.
2. Afternoon Tea:
Create a refined tea-time spread with a variety of Bristot biscuits, served alongside Koala Tea Co. herbal infusions or classic black teas stocked in-store. Include fresh fruit and a dollop of mascarpone for added richness.
3. Cheese Platter Accent:
Add subtle sweetness and texture by including crisp Bristot almond or hazelnut biscuits to your antipasto or cheese board. Pair with soft cheeses like brie, gorgonzola or triple cream.
4. Dessert Garnish or Base:
Crush Bristot chocolate chunk or almond biscuits to create delicious crumble toppings for ice cream, mousse or baked pears. You can also use them as a biscuit base for cheesecakes or layered desserts.
