Twix

Twix was invented at the Mars factory in Slough in 1967 and went on sale in Britain the same year: a crunchy biscuit topped with soft caramel and cloaked in chocolate. We stock the nine-bar multipacks, the Chocolate Biscuit & Caramel Bars and the Finger Biscuits, because nine wrapped bars make a tin by the kettle, which is the format that makes sense next to a teapot.

About Twix

Twix is the twin-finger bar made by Mars, invented at the company's Slough factory in 1967 and on sale in Britain the same year. Each finger is a crunchy biscuit topped with soft caramel and cloaked in chocolate, and the same bar was sold across mainland Europe for years as Raider before taking the Twix name.

Twix is the four o'clock bar, one for a mug rather than a dessert plate. Caramel and chocolate coat the mouth, so the tea has to be brisk enough to cut through: a strong breakfast blend or an Assam with milk. A delicate Darjeeling or a jasmine green simply loses the argument; with coffee, a black filter.
