What is Twix?
Twix is a packaged chocolate bar made with crunchy biscuit fingers, a layer of caramel and a smooth milk-chocolate coating. It was first made in Britain and is now sold widely, including in shops across the English-speaking world.
The sweet caramel and chocolate contrast with the crisp biscuit, making it an easy snack to eat straight from the wrapper. In Britain it is commonly enjoyed with tea or coffee; elsewhere, it often turns up as a lunchbox treat or an on-the-go sweet. It is mainly a source of carbohydrates and fat, with relatively little protein.
For a smaller treat, have one finger rather than both, or share the bar alongside a cup of unsweetened tea or coffee.

Frequently Asked Questions About Twix
What is Twix made of?
Twix is made with a crunchy biscuit base, a caramel layer and a milk-chocolate coating. The combination of crisp biscuit and soft caramel gives the bar its familiar layered texture.
Are the two Twix fingers different?
No, the two Twix fingers have the same ingredients and recipe. “Left Twix” and “Right Twix” are playful advertising identities, not different products or flavors.
Why does Twix come with two fingers?
Twix is packaged as two narrow fingers, making it easy to share or save one for later. Both pieces have the same biscuit, caramel and chocolate layers.
Was Twix ever called Raider?
Yes, Twix was sold as Raider in several European markets before the name changed to Twix. The rebranding happened at different times in different countries.
Can you freeze Twix?
Yes, you can freeze Twix in its sealed wrapper or an airtight container. The chocolate and caramel will become firm, so let the bar warm slightly before eating to enjoy its usual texture.
Why has the chocolate on my Twix turned white?
A white or pale film on Twix is usually chocolate bloom, caused by changes in temperature or moisture that bring fat or sugar to the surface. It can affect appearance and texture, but does not by itself mean the bar is unsafe.
Can Twix be used in baking?
Yes, chopped Twix works well in brownies, cookies and ice cream desserts. Add it near the end of baking or fold it into a cooled mixture, since the caramel can melt and become sticky.
Does Twix contain caffeine?
Yes, Twix contains a small amount of naturally occurring caffeine from its cocoa-containing chocolate coating. It is not a caffeine-focused snack, but people avoiding caffeine completely should account for the chocolate.
Can people with diabetes eat Twix?
Twix contains sugar and refined carbohydrates that can raise blood glucose. People with diabetes should fit a portion into their individual meal plan and consider their own blood-glucose response.
Does Twix need to be refrigerated after opening?
No, refrigeration is not necessary if Twix is kept in a cool, dry place. Reseal the wrapper or use an airtight container to protect it from humidity, strong odors and heat.
