Snap, then chew, then a long sweet finish. Serve it cool, because a warm bar loses the snap and the caramel runs, and pair it with something unsweetened.Curator notes: the tasting profile is our own editorial assessment against the current pack format and the brand's published description. We run same-day UK dispatch on every order placed before 2pm Monday to Friday. Storage and serving temperature are also covered in the detailed Q and A tab below. ## Description Twix in this pack is nine separate twenty gram bars rather than one large bar broken into pieces, and that single fact decides everything about how the pack gets used. One hundred and eighty grams in total, each bar sealed in its own wrapper, which is what a multipack is for: a lunchbox, a coat pocket, a car door, a tin that gets raided by people who are not going to sit down with a plate. The bar itself is a three layer build and the order matters. A firm shortcake biscuit underneath, a layer of chewy caramel laid along the top of it, and milk chocolate over the whole thing. Nothing about that is complicated, but it is unusually well balanced for a confectionery bar, because the biscuit gives the structure a bar of chocolate alone does not have, and the caramel gives it a length of finish that a plain chocolate covered biscuit does not have. You get snap, then chew, then a long sweet fade, in that order, every time. The Taste Profile Caramel: ●●●●● (5/5) The defining layer and the reason a Twix eats slowly. It stretches, it sticks to the teeth briefly and it carries the flavour well past the swallow. Milk Chocolate: ●●●●○ (4/5) Sweet and soft rather than dark or aromatic. It coats the whole bar, so it arrives first and melts before the biscuit gives way. Biscuit Snap: ●●●○○ (3/5) A firm, dry shortcake that does the structural work. Present, audible, deliberately not the headline. Sweetness: ●●●●● (5/5) High from every direction at once, with only the dryness of the biscuit acting as any kind of brake. Teas.co.uk Curator Rating: 4.7 / 5 - Our expert verdict from the curators at Teas.co.uk. The Story Behind Twix Twix is a Mars confectionery brand and has been a fixture of British corner shops and lunchboxes for decades. It belongs to a small group of bars that are genuinely three things at once rather than a chocolate bar with something stirred into it, and that construction is the whole proposition. The biscuit is baked, the caramel is laid on afterwards, the chocolate goes over the top, and each layer keeps its own texture instead of blurring into the next. Mars is a long established confectionery company, which is company heritage rather than a claim about where this particular pack was made. Packaging: Follow the current UK pack and local-authority guidance; components can require different disposal routes. What You Are Actually Buying Nine bars, twenty grams each: one hundred and eighty grams in the pack. These are the small format bars, not the two finger bar sold on its own at a till, and that is worth knowing before you order. Individually wrapped: the point of the format. Each bar travels on its own, so the pack can be split across a week rather than opened once and finished. Contains gluten and dairy: the base is a wheat shortcake and the coating is milk chocolate, so this is not a vegan or dairy free product. For everything else, read the current UK pack. Not a tin biscuit: this does not go on a plate with a pot of tea and it does not dunk. It is a pocket bar and it is very good at being one. How Does Twix Multipack Chocolate Biscuit & Caramel Bars 9x20g Compare to: McVitie's Club Salted Caramel Flavour Biscuit Bars Multipack, 7 x 22g: the same idea worked the other way round. Club encloses a plain biscuit completely in chocolate and puts the caramel note into the coating, so it snaps and then finishes. Twix keeps the caramel as a separate chewy layer, so it chews. Buy the Club for a clean break and the Twix for the pull. Cadbury Dairy Milk Fingers Milk Chocolate Covered Biscuits, 189g: a plate biscuit rather than a pocket bar. The Fingers are thin, enclosed, snappy and meant to be shared out; the Twix is wrapped, chewy and meant to be eaten alone. Different jobs entirely, and most households want one of each. Bahlsen Pick Up Choco and Milk Chocolate Biscuit Bars Multipack, 5 Pack 140g: a chocolate slab between two cocoa biscuit halves, drier and noticeably less sweet with no caramel at all. Pick the Bahlsen if the sweetness here sounds like too much, and the Twix if the caramel is the point. Ideal Serving Conditions Temperature does more to a Twix than to almost anything else on our biscuit shelf, because two of the three layers respond to it and they respond in opposite directions. Getting it right takes no effort and makes a real difference. The Cold Bar Cool, not frozen: fifteen minutes somewhere cold firms the caramel and the coating, so the bar breaks cleanly and the chew is springy rather than sticky. Bite, do not snap: a cold Twix bitten through gives you all three textures in one go. Snapped in half first, the caramel pulls and most of it stays on one side. Warm rooms are the enemy: above room temperature the chocolate softens onto your fingers, the caramel runs and the biscuit loses its contrast. The bar still tastes fine, it just stops being interesting. Frozen is a different product: an hour in the freezer turns the caramel hard and the whole bar into something you crunch. Some people prefer it. It is worth trying once with one bar before committing the pack. The Things This Format Does That a Single Bar Cannot It rations itself: nine small wrapped bars last a week in a way that one large bar does not. It travels: each wrapper is a sealed unit, so it survives a bag, a glovebox and a coat pocket. It chops: a cold bar chops into neat cubes with a heavy knife, which is why it ends up on top of traybakes and ice cream. It shares without a plate: handing round wrapped bars is easier than cutting up one big one, especially with children. Getting It Right with a Hot Drink Pairing: a plain black coffee or a strong unsweetened black tea. Both have the bitterness to cut caramel, which is the one flavour here that goes on and on. Avoid: hot chocolate, sweetened tea and milky sweet coffee. They stack sugar on sugar and the bar has nothing underneath to balance it. Dunking: no. The chocolate melts straight off and the caramel goes soft and stringy in the cup. This is the one thing a Twix is genuinely bad at. Storage: cool, dry and dark, away from anything strong smelling. Chocolate takes on kitchen odours through a wrapper more readily than people expect. Best with: a flask on a cold walk, a lunchbox, a long drive, and a bowl of vanilla ice cream that wants chopping over the top. Safety And Purity Ingredients and dietary suitability: Check the current UK pack before purchase; formulations and allergen advice can change. The product name states milk chocolate and the base is a wheat shortcake, so this is neither a vegan nor a dairy free nor a gluten free product. Choking note: a small firm bar with a chewy layer is a shape younger children bolt. Supervise them, as you would with any wrapped confectionery. No health claim: it is a sweet confectionery bar and the sugar is high. Child safety: keep out of reach of small children, and put the wrappers in the bin rather than the pocket. ## Product Questions How many bars are in the pack?Nine, at twenty grams each, which is one hundred and eighty grams in total. These are the small multipack bars rather than the larger two finger bar sold singly, so order with that in mind. Why do they taste better cold?Because two of the three layers change with temperature. Cold, the caramel is springy and the chocolate breaks cleanly; warm, the caramel runs and the coating softens onto your fingers. Fifteen minutes somewhere cold is enough. Can I dunk one?No. The chocolate melts off into the drink and the caramel goes soft and stringy. A Twix is a pocket bar, not a dunker. Buy a digestive or a Hobnob if dunking is what you want. What is actually in the bar?Three layers in a fixed order: a firm shortcake biscuit underneath, chewy caramel laid along the top of it, and milk chocolate over the whole thing. The full ingredient declaration is printed on the current pack. Is each bar wrapped separately?Yes, that is what the multipack format is. Each bar travels on its own, which is why the pack suits a lunchbox or a coat pocket and why it lasts a week instead of an evening. Can I freeze them?You can, and it makes a genuinely different product. The caramel goes hard and the whole bar becomes something you crunch rather than chew. Try one bar first before committing the pack, because opinion divides sharply. What drink goes best with it?Plain black coffee or a strong unsweetened black tea. Both carry enough bitterness to cut the caramel, which is the flavour that lingers longest. Sweetened drinks and hot chocolate make the whole thing cloying. What else can I do with them besides eating them whole?Chop a cold bar into cubes and use it as rubble over ice cream, on top of a fridge traybake, or stirred through softened vanilla before refreezing. A cold bar chops neatly; a warm one smears. How should I store the pack?Cool, dry, dark and closed, away from anything strong smelling. Chocolate picks up kitchen odours through a wrapper more readily than people expect, and a warm cupboard above an oven is the worst place in the house for it. Why is there a pale film on the chocolate?That is bloom, and it happens when chocolate warms and re sets. It is cosmetic and harmless, it does not mean the bar has gone off, and it usually means the pack has been somewhere warm at some point. ## Ingredients & Nutrition ComponentProportionWhat it bringsPack format9 bars x 20g = 180gA multipack of separately wrapped bars.

Read the net weight, the bar count, the ingredient list, the allergen advice and the best-before date off the current UK pack.Characterising components shown. Milk chocolate and wheat are stated because the product name and the format state them; nothing else is inferred.Sourcing & blend. Twix Multipack Chocolate Biscuit & Caramel Bars 9x20g is made by Mars, whose confectionery has been on British shelves for decades. What is documented is the format: nine twenty gram bars, each one a baked shortcake base with a caramel layer on top and a milk chocolate coat over both. The three layers are built separately and keep their own textures, which is the difference between this and a chocolate bar with biscuit pieces stirred through it.What's in Twix Multipack Chocolate Biscuit & Caramel Bars 9x20g, and what isn't: In: a shortcake biscuit base, a chewy caramel layer and a milk chocolate coating, in nine separately wrapped twenty gram bars. Not vegan and not dairy free: the coating is milk chocolate and the product name says so. Contains gluten: the base is a wheat shortcake and it is not suitable for a coeliac diet. No health claim: this is a sweet confectionery bar. We claim no benefit of any kind for it and the sugar is high. ## Flavour Science The flavour of Twix Multipack Chocolate Biscuit & Caramel Bars 9x20g is built in three layers, and because those layers are physically stacked rather than blended, reading them in order explains exactly why the bar tastes the way it does from the first bite to the last.The outer layer is the milk chocolate, and it does the introduction. It covers the bar completely, so it is what the tongue meets first and what starts to melt before anything else gives way. It is sweet and soft rather than dark or aromatic, which is a deliberate choice: a high cocoa coating would fight the caramel underneath instead of handing over to it. What the coating contributes is the initial sweetness and the sense of the bar softening in the mouth, and it is also the layer that decides how the bar behaves in your hand, because it is the only part exposed to the room.The flavour spike is the caramel, and it is the reason people buy this bar rather than a plain chocolate covered biscuit. It arrives a fraction of a second after the chocolate, it stretches when you bite through it, and it slows the whole business of eating down. That pull is doing real work: chewing keeps the sugars in contact with the palate for longer, which is why a twenty gram bar registers as more substantial than its weight suggests. It is also the layer with the longest finish. Long after the biscuit has gone, the caramel is still there.The base structure is the shortcake biscuit, and its job is contrast rather than flavour. It is firm, dry and plain, and it gives the bar a spine so that the eating experience is not simply soft all the way through. The biscuit is also what stops the sweetness reading as one long undifferentiated note, because a dry crumb in the middle of something sticky resets the palate slightly with every bite. Take the biscuit away and you have a caramel filled chocolate; leave it in and you have a bar that gives you snap, chew and fade in a repeatable order.Getting it right in the cup. The honest version of this heading is that this bar belongs beside the cup and never in it. Dunked, the chocolate slides off into the drink and the caramel goes soft and stringy, which spoils both the bar and the tea. What does work is the pairing, and the rule is the same one that applies to any very sweet confectionery: choose a drink with some bitterness in it. A plain black coffee is the best partner because the roast bitterness cuts caramel cleanly, and a strong unsweetened black tea does the same job with tannin instead. Hot chocolate, sweetened tea and milky sweet coffee all fail, because they add sugar to something that has no brake of its own. If you want something on the side, choose acidity rather than more sweetness: a sharp apple or a few raspberries will reset the palate between bars.How water and temperature change it. Temperature is the variable that matters, and unusually it acts on two layers at once and in different ways. Cool, the chocolate is firm and breaks cleanly and the caramel is springy rather than sticky, so the bar bites through in one clean movement and gives you all three textures together. Warm, the coating softens onto your fingers, the caramel runs and stretches further than it should, and the biscuit stops registering as contrast at all. Frozen, the caramel goes hard and the whole thing becomes something you crunch, which is a genuinely different product and worth trying with a single bar before committing the pack. Water is less of a problem than it is for an open crumb biscuit, because a full chocolate coat is a decent moisture barrier, but humidity will still soften the base over time once the wrapper is opened. Smell is the real storage risk: chocolate takes on kitchen odours through a wrapper faster than people expect, so keep the pack closed, cool and away from anything strong. ## Recipe Ideas Twix Multipack Chocolate Biscuit & Caramel Bars 9x20g is a pocket bar rather than a plate biscuit, but a cold one chops into neat cubes and that opens up more than the wrapper suggests. Six builds below cover the cold bar, a sundae, a no bake fridge slice, a lunchbox plan, an affogato stirrer and the freezer version. Recipes, born here first The Cold Bar How to make The Cold Bar with Twix Multipack. 15 min 1 bar Easy You'll need 1 Twix bar from the multipack Fifteen minutes somewhere cold A plain black coffee or strong unsweetened tea Method Chill the bar for fifteen minutes in a cold room, or ten in the fridge on a warm day. This firms the caramel and the coating. Unwrap it whole and bite straight through rather than snapping it in half, so all three layers arrive together. Drink something unsweetened alongside. Bitterness is what cuts caramel; sugar only stacks on top of it. Leave the rest of the pack closed and cool. Opened and warm is how a multipack goes dull. What you'll end up with: A clean break, a springy chew instead of a sticky one, and chocolate that stays on the bar rather than on your fingers. Twix Rubble Sundae How to make Twix Rubble Sundae with Twix Multipack. 10 min 2 sundaes Easy You'll need 2 cold Twix bars 4 scoops vanilla ice cream A heavy knife and a board A handful of raspberries Method Chill two bars hard, then chop them into rough cubes with a heavy knife. Cold chops, warm smears. Scoop the ice cream into two glasses and scatter half the rubble between the layers rather than all on top. Finish with the rest of the rubble and the raspberries, which stop the whole thing tasting of nothing but sugar. Serve straight away, because the caramel softens quickly against ice cream. What you'll end up with: Three textures in a glass: cold cream, hard chocolate shards and chewy caramel that has not had time to go soft. No Bake Twix Fridge Slice How to make No Bake Twix Fridge Slice with Twix Multipack. 20 min + 3 hr chill 12 squares Medium You'll need 4 Twix bars, chilled and chopped 200g digestive biscuits, crushed 100g butter, melted 200g milk chocolate, melted A 20cm square tin, lined Method Mix the crushed digestives with the melted butter and press the mixture firmly into the lined tin. Scatter two chopped bars over the base and press them lightly in so they anchor. Pour the melted chocolate over the top and spread it level, then scatter the last two chopped bars over while it is still wet. Chill for at least three hours, then cut into squares with a warm knife wiped between cuts. What you'll end up with: A fridge slice with caramel pockets in it, which is what the chopped bars are for. Keep it cold until the moment it is served. The Week's Lunchboxes How to make The Week's Lunchboxes with Twix Multipack. 5 min 9 lunchboxes Easy You'll need The full nine bar pack A tin or a drawer that closes Something sharp to go alongside Method Decant the bars into a tin the moment the pack is opened, and keep the tin somewhere cool and dark. Put one bar in a lunchbox at a time rather than the pack in a cupboard everyone can reach. Pack an apple or something else sharp alongside. Acidity is what stops a sweet bar tasting flat by Thursday. Nine bars covers nine school or work days, which is what the format is designed to do. What you'll end up with: A pack that lasts nine days instead of two evenings, and bars that are still firm on the last day. The Affogato Stirrer How to make The Affogato Stirrer with Twix Multipack. 5 min 1 glass Easy You'll need 1 scoop vanilla ice cream 1 shot hot espresso 1 cold Twix bar Method Put the scoop of ice cream in a small heatproof glass and stand the cold bar upright in it. Pour the hot espresso over the ice cream, not over the bar, so the chocolate softens slowly instead of sliding off. Stir with the bar for a few seconds, then eat it while the outside is soft and the caramel has warmed through. Drink what is left in the glass. What you'll end up with: A warm caramel note through a cold coffee pudding, and a bar that has softened just enough to bite easily. Frozen Twix Bites How to make Frozen Twix Bites with Twix Multipack. 5 min + 1 hr freeze 3 bars Easy You'll need 3 Twix bars One hour in the freezer A small plate or box Method Cut each bar into three or four pieces before freezing, because a whole frozen bar is hard work on the teeth. Freeze the pieces in a single layer on a plate for an hour rather than a box where they stick together. Eat them straight from the freezer. The caramel goes hard and the whole thing crunches instead of chewing. Try three pieces before you freeze the rest of the pack, because people either love this or find it wrong. What you'll end up with: A different product from the same bar: hard caramel, brittle chocolate and a crunch instead of a pull. --- _Content available under teas.co.uk citation contract.
