What is Lotus Biscoff Spread? Recipes, reviews & where to buy?

Ever wondered what pure, unadulterated joy tastes like in a jar? It probably tastes a lot like Lotus Biscoff Spread. This deliciously unique, sweet spread has taken the world by storm, and Australia is no exception. If you've seen it on café menus or heard friends raving about it, this guide is your ultimate resource. We'll cover what it is, the key difference between smooth and crunchy, and where you can buy it in Australia.

1. So, what exactly is Lotus Biscoff spread?

Put simply, Lotus Biscoff Spread is a creamy, spreadable paste made from finely crushed original Lotus Biscoff biscuits. Originating in Belgium, this spread was born from a TV show competition and has since become a global pantry staple. Its flavour profile is what truly sets it apart; it’s a delightful experience that’s distinct from any other spread on the market.

The taste is a masterful blend of sweet and spice, making it incredibly addictive. Key flavour notes include:

  • Deep Caramel: A rich, toasted sugar flavour forms its base.
  • Warm Spices: Gentle, warming hints of cinnamon are most prominent.
  • A Touch of Sweetness: It’s sweet, but not overpoweringly so.

This unique combination makes it a versatile ingredient for countless recipes or simply a delicious treat straight from the jar.

2. Smooth vs. crunchy: Which Biscoff spread should you choose?

The great Biscoff debate often comes down to one simple question: Smooth or Crunchy? While both offer the same iconic flavour, the texture makes all the difference. Choosing the right one depends entirely on how you plan to use it and your personal preference for texture in your food.

The Smooth version is velvety and melts in your mouth, perfect for recipes requiring a seamless consistency. The Crunchy version contains small, delightful pieces of the original biscuit, adding a satisfying textural contrast. Here’s a quick breakdown to help you decide:
