It’s been a super long time since I’ve had a Twix, which is not to say anything bad about it, after all it’s hard to go wrong with biscuit, caramel and milk chocolate, but it just doesn’t capture me the same way that a lot of other chocolate bars do. I happened to eye this in my local Wilkinson store for 52p at the checkout, obvious impulse spot, and figured why not.

My first thoughts looking at the packaging and description (crispy wafer and caramel covered in milk chocolate) was that this was a Mars Delight-esque bar. I don’t know if Mars Delights are still around, I haven’t seen them in sometime, and this could be Mars’ way of creating a new product with some hype without really creating a new product. More of just a rebranding really.

This is kinda how it turned out too, which is not necessarily a bad thing as I actually really like Mars Delights, but it’s a little indicative of how the chocolate market has been for a little while that a new product is little more than an old product brought back into fashion. It’s nice, but if you’re wondering why it tastes so familiar, it’s because you’ve pretty much eaten it before.
