Summary
Thumbs down! Both in terms of taste and texture, Priyagold Chatpata Biscuits failed to woo us. While the Cashew Chatpata variant does not justify the flavor tag, the bitter taste of cumin from the Jeera Top variant was a letdown too.
Bite-sized biscuits are a fun treat! The small size not only looks cute but makes snacking easy. Serve them with tea or as bar nibbles.

Priyagold Chatpata Biscuit Flavors – Detailed Review
Our detailed review talks about the pros, cons, and overall experience of each variant of Priyagold Chatpata Biscuit.
1. Cashew Chatpatta
Product Inspection: Priyagold Cashew Chatpatta biscuits come in a plastic pet jar bottle. The jar packaging of this product was not sturdy. We expected it to be better. Appearance-wise, these are cashew-shaped tiny biscuits. There is a layer of masala coating over them.
Our Experience: In terms of the taste, it lacks the wow factor. What did not work for us is the off-beat industrial taste. The chatpata flavor we expected is missing here. The taste delivered does not justify the ‘chatpata‘ flavor tag. These are not laced with spiciness.
Texture-wise too, these biscuits were a letdown. It lacks a crisp texture. The cashew-shaped biscuits do not lend a bold crunch.
2. Jeera Top
Product Inspection: The packaging of this variant is similar to the above one. These are heart shaped tiny biscuits that are uneven.
Our Experience: These biscuits emit a noticeable aroma of cumin. Taste-wise, these are pretty average. They are salted appropriately. However, the slight bitterness of the cumin was undesirable.
These biscuits are slightly greasy to touch. Nonetheless, the texture was surprisingly crunchy.
