Gold Rush Travel Tin

This one is worth its weight in gold—a rich, indulgent blend of golden caramel, roasted peanuts, and buttery popcorn that’s sure to delight.

The discovery of gold in Ballarat in 1851 ignited Victoria’s famous gold rush, drawing thousands of hopeful diggers each week. Migrants from across the world arrived in search of fortune, and between 1851 and 1896, Victoria’s goldfields produced an astonishing 61 million ounces (1.89 million kg) of gold.

This era shaped Ballarat into the thriving town it is today, home to over 115,000 people—yet the lure of gold remains. To this day, prospectors still flock to Ballarat, panning, detecting, and sluicing in hopes of striking it rich.
