The ANZAC Legend

The ANZAC legend evolved essentially as a result of the 1915 Gallipoli Campaign during World War One.

While still training in the Egyptian desert late in 1914, the 1st Australian Division and the New Zealand (NZ and A Division) were formed into the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC).

The ANZACS, together with British formations, landed north of Gaba Tepe (the landing area later known as Anzac Cove) and at Cape Helles on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey.

 

Mothers, wives and sweethearts of soldiers fighting in the Gallipoli Campaign lovingly baked the Soldiers’ Biscuits, which became known as the ANZAC'S Biscuit.

The ANZAC biscuit is symbolic of the marvellous work carried out by the women at home, who tirelessly baked these biscuits for the soldiers overseas; to keep morale high, as well as for sale at home to raise funds for the war effort and the Red Cross.

Unibic, in manufacturing these biscuits, continues this fervent tradition in support of war veterans, their families and their local communities.

Unibic ANZAC biscuits are now sold in many countries around the world – directing a percentage of total sale proceeds to various war veterans and community support groups. For example, Unibic ANZAC biscuit sales support the Returned Services League (RSL) in Australia, the Royal British Legion in the United Kingdom, the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) in the United States of America, the Royal Canadian Legion (RCL) in Canada, and the Royal New Zealand Returned Serviceman’s Association (RNZRSA) in New Zealand. More importantly, the legacy of the ANZAC Spirit is being explained to new generations of the public. 

In 2005, Unibic in India launched the ANZAC biscuit pack, where 3% of sales help to provide support to India's war widows, as well as Indian Jawans who are in need of artificial limbs.

Anzac biscuits are now an institution - recognised around the world as being as Australian as Vegemite, Passionfruit Pavlova and the great Aussie barbeque.
