Matilda Graham's Blog: Did you know that Twix is short for ‘Twin’ and ‘Bix’?

It might seem strange, but Twix is a morph between the words Twin and Bix. ‘Twin’ meaning two of and ‘Bix’ being the British shorthand of the word biscuits! Interesting, right? This isn’t the only thing we have in store for you today. Keep reading to find out what new Twix products we have and how it can benefit you…

There are orange, mint and cappuccino flavoured Twix’s?

Let’s dive into the background of Twix! This original 2 finger butter cookie bar with caramel and milk was created in 1967 by Mars Limited in the UK. However, this now well-loved bar was not as popular back then. It was only when in 1983 the company struck gold with the peanut butter Twix!

As sales grew, the bar was renamed from ‘Raider’ to Twix and sold worldwide. Their slogan was “Raider is now Twix, nothing else changes” and did well to captivate the audience’s attention. This is where they took the opportunity to expand their product line and release many other varieties like Twix cookie and cream, dark chocolate, fudge, coffee, mint slice and orange flavour. Although, some more recent launches are Twix Cappuccino and Twix Java.

Keep your eyes peeled for the appearance of these new Twix products!

Alongside the original Twix bar and the white chocolate flavoured bar, we are soon to welcome the salted caramel Twix and Twix Topps to our Micro Markets and snack machines.

The salted caramel Twix is a two-finger bar of salty, rich goodness and anyone would be crazy not to give this a try! The Twix Tops are making a comeback from the past! They are a thin layer of biscuit with gooey caramel on the inside, topped with a smooth layer of milk chocolate! They are made with a lot less biscuit compared to the normal bars, therefore having a lower number of calories. Perfect for anyone looking for a treat!
