Ceylon Biscuits Ltd, which celebrates 40 years in the business this year, on Wednesday claimed a world-first with a new cream sandwich savoury biscuit saying all over there is a shift from sweet products to ‘healthier ones’.

In a press release, Theja Peiris, Senior Brand Manager, Ceylon Biscuits Limited (CBL), said the new biscuit has a novel taste, ‘even for us at CBL’. She said the traditional puff biscuit lover did not have a suitable alternative, and ,“We saw a savoury cream puff as the solution.
