Pink can now call herself a Tim Tam connoisseur.

Throughout her Summer Carnival tour in Australia, which kicked off on February 9, the singer has been gifted the Original, Double Coat and now the Murray River Salted Caramel variety of the popular Aussie chocolate biscuits.

And she’s always been game to try the different flavours.

During her most recent Melbourne show, the superstar was thrilled when she was once again handed a box of the Arnott’s delicacy from a fan in the front row.

“Wanna be friends forever?” she asked the fan. “Do you like these kind? They’re salted caramel. I’ve never had them. They’re good? OK, I’ll do it... Thank you for seeing me.”

Pink was given the original flavour at her Gold Coast show on February 20 at Carrara Stadium, during which she was captured in a TikTok video squealing “Tim Tams” while singing her hit Try.

Days later on the first leg of her Melbourne concerts at Marvel Stadium, she was given the Double Coat variety by yet another fan.

“They’re blue. Can I have one?” she asked before clarifying if the sweets for her daughter. “Are they for me or are they for Willow?”

The star was so excited it was for her that she almost loss her footing and fell off the stage when reaching out to grab the gift.

“OK, I almost just died,” she told the crowd. “What is happening double coat? Why did we wait this long?”

Pink proved just how much of a fan she is of Tim Tams that she knew about the Tim Tam Slam – a fun ritual that involves sipping a hot beverage through the Tim Tam before slamming it in your mouth.

“Does it still work if you drink your coffee through it?” she asked the delighted crowd. “OK, thank you. That will be my breakfast.”

While Down Under, Pink has also tried another favourite Aussie snack: Vegemite Shapes.

The singer was dared into trying the savoury biscuits during her Melbourne show last week – and the challenge was accepted by the pop star.

“Don’t challenge me,” she playfully quipped to the fan. “Are you gonna have some? Do you like them?”

As she opened the box, sniffed the biscuits and took a bite, Pink’s face turned sour.

“I mean, it’s a carb. What’s bad about it?” she said. “It’s a little dry, though.”

As the audience laughed, the singer asked if the fan wanted to share some because she was done.

“I think I’m good,” Pink joked as she handed back the box.
