Frequently Asked Questions About Lotus Biscuit Crumbs
What are Lotus Biscuit Crumbs?
Lotus Biscuit Crumbs are crushed caramelised biscuits with a distinctive caramel and lightly spiced flavour. They add crunch to desserts and can be pressed into a base for cheesecakes and other chilled treats.
How do you use Lotus Biscuit Crumbs?
Use Lotus Biscuit Crumbs to make dessert bases or sprinkle them over ice cream, pudding, yoghurt, and frosted cakes. For a base, mix them with melted butter; as a topping, add them just before serving to keep their crunch.
Can you use Lotus Biscuit Crumbs for a cheesecake base?
Yes, Lotus Biscuit Crumbs work well for a cheesecake base. Mix them with melted butter until the crumbs hold together when pressed, then firmly pack the mixture into the tin and chill or bake it according to your recipe.
Can Lotus Biscuit Crumbs replace graham cracker crumbs?
Yes, Lotus Biscuit Crumbs can replace graham cracker crumbs in many dessert bases. They bring a sweeter, caramelised, lightly spiced flavour, so the finished cheesecake or pie will taste different; adjust added sugar if your recipe includes it.
How can you make Lotus Biscuit Crumbs at home?
To make Lotus Biscuit Crumbs at home, crush Lotus biscuits in a sealed bag with a rolling pin or pulse them in a food processor. Stop at coarse crumbs for toppings, or continue until fine for a compact dessert base.
Are Lotus Biscuit Crumbs the same as Lotus Biscoff spread?
No, Lotus Biscuit Crumbs are dry crushed biscuits, while Lotus Biscoff spread is a smooth, spreadable product. Crumbs add texture and form dessert bases; the spread adds moisture and a creamy biscuit flavour.
What desserts can you make with Lotus Biscuit Crumbs?
Lotus Biscuit Crumbs work in cheesecake, parfaits, trifles, ice cream sundaes, and layered pudding desserts. Their caramelised flavour pairs especially well with vanilla, chocolate, and cream-based fillings; add a final sprinkle when serving for extra crunch.
How do you stop a Lotus Biscuit Crumbs crust from crumbling?
A Lotus Biscuit Crumbs crust usually crumbles when the crumbs are too dry or not pressed firmly enough. Add melted butter gradually until the mixture holds when squeezed, pack it tightly into the tin, and let it chill before filling.
Are Lotus Biscuit Crumbs sweet?
Yes, Lotus Biscuit Crumbs have a sweet, caramelised flavour because they are made from caramelised biscuits. Their sweetness is noticeable in delicate fillings, so pair them with less-sweet cream or yoghurt if you want a more balanced dessert.
How should you store Lotus Biscuit Crumbs after opening?
Store Lotus Biscuit Crumbs in a tightly sealed, dry container away from heat and moisture. Moisture can make the crumbs lose their crisp texture or clump together; follow any different storage directions printed on the package.

What is Lotus Biscuit Crumbs?
Lotus Biscuit Crumbs are crushed caramelised biscuits from Belgium, ready to use in dessert bases and toppings. Their sweet, toasted flavour and fine, crunchy texture make them an easy way to add a biscuit layer without crushing whole biscuits yourself.
They are often used in cheesecake crusts, layered desserts and ice cream, or sprinkled over yoghurt and coffee drinks. The crumbs are energy-dense and provide mostly carbohydrates and fat, with relatively little protein or fibre. For a less sweet-feeling dessert, use a small sprinkle with fresh fruit or plain yoghurt, or balance them with a tangy filling.
