Description

The Britannia Good Day Pista Badam Cookies (often called biscuits in India) are a premium variant in the popular Good Day range, designed to offer a taste of traditional Indian festive nuts within a familiar buttery cookie. They are manufactured by Britannia Industries Ltd. Here is a detailed description of the product: 1. Core Flavor and Texture Base Flavor: The cookie has the signature rich, buttery, and slightly sweet Good Day base. This flavor is achieved using butter and milk solids, giving it a classic, comforting profile. Key Inclusion: The primary differentiator is the inclusion of three distinct nuts: Pistachio (Pista), Almond (Badam), and Cashew Nuts (though the name only highlights Pista and Badam, the ingredient list confirms cashews are also included, adding to the richness). Nutty Taste: The combination of these nuts provides an exotic, layered nutty flavor that is more complex and fragrant than the simple Cashew-only variant. Pistachios contribute a subtle, unique aroma and green visual specks. Texture: They are a crunchy cookie, firm and crisp, but formulated to have a pleasant "melt-in-the-mouth" quality when bitten or dipped in a hot beverage like tea or coffee. 2. Ingredients and Positioning Main Ingredients: Refined Wheat Flour (Maida), Sugar, Edible Vegetable Oil, Nuts (Pistachio, Almond, Cashew), Butter, and Milk Solids. Note on Nuts: The total nut content is typically around 5\% of the product weight, providing a hearty, noticeable crunch. Coloring: The cookies may contain permitted synthetic food color (like E102, which is Tartrazine) to enhance the traditional yellow/green appearance associated with pistachios. Health Claim: Like all Good Day cookies, they are marketed as being Trans Fat-free, aiming to be a healthier indulgence choice compared to older snack formats. Target: This variant is often associated with special occasions, festivals, or gifting due to the inclusion of pista and badam, which are considered premium, celebratory nuts in India.
