Tame hunger with more flavourful Shapes
APRIL 2016 – Since launching in the 1970s, Arnott’s Shapes have been one of Australia’s favourite biscuit snacks. The iconic boxes have been a staple in Aussie pantries for generations, the go-to for after school snacking, lunchbox hunger taming and family crowd-pleasing.
Now Arnott’s is excited to announce we’re delivering more of what you love about Shapes – flavour!
Thousands of Australians have asked for it, and Arnott’s has answered the call! Listening to the demand for more flavour with our new range, and now sprinkling seasoning on both sides of the biscuit and baking it into the centre, giving a flavour hit like never before.
To achieve this, Arnott’s bakers have tweaked some of the recipes to bring the range into 2016 and cater to changing taste preferences for bolder and stronger flavours. Not only have we added more flavour than ever before, across some of the range, we’ve also made the flavour particles smaller to help them stick to the biscuit better.
New Shapes have been tested and trialed extensively by committed Shapes fans who have told us we’ve created the most flavourful Shapes ever!
New Shapes also deliver improved Health Star Ratings so your baked not fried biscuit just got more permissible!

“Having baked biscuits for Australians for more than 150 years, Arnott’s loves receiving feedback from our consumers and takes their opinions seriously. For some time our consumers have been telling us they want more flavour in Shapes.
