Twix’s new Winter Spice bar flavoured with nutmeg and cinnamon divides opinion as fans call it a ‘game changer’ and the perfect Christmas treat – while critics argue it’s a ‘freak of nature’

  • Available from this week, the festive snack is filled with cinnamon and nutmeg 
  • The combination has left some social media users branding the version ‘vile’ 
  • However, other foodies were eager to try the limited edition chocolate bar 

Twix has split opinion with its new Winter Spice version with fans calling it a ‘game changer’ and the perfect Christmas treat, while critics argue its a ‘freak of nature’.

Available from this week, the festive snack is filled with cinnamon and nutmeg – but the combination has left some social media users branding it ‘vile’.

However, others already love the limited edition chocolate bar, with one person writing: ‘Had a Twix Winter Spice earlier. It’s a game changer.’

Another said: ‘About to try something called a Winter Spice Twix. Very excited’, while a third added: ‘Limited Edition Twix Winter Spice… have one and thank me later.’

But some were less than impressed with the idea, with one person adding: ‘Twix Winter Spice is a freak of nature. Would not recommend.’

A second wrote: ‘Why would you mess with a Twix? Winter Spice Twix sounds vile,’ and another said: ‘Do not – and I can’t stress this enough – do not even think about purchasing the new Twix Winter Spice.’

Twix Winter Spice will be sold in a host of convenience stores including Co-op, WHSmith and Spar.  

However, those seeking a festive fix will have to be quick because they’re only available for a limited time of 12-weeks.

Twix Winter Spice will be available in two formats – a single bar priced at 61p and an Xtra costing 76p. 

Kerry Cavanaugh, Marketing Director at Mars Wrigley UK said: ‘Leaves are falling and the nights are getting longer – which can mean only one thing… Christmas is coming! 

‘Twix Winter Spice is packed full of festive flavour and it’s the perfect treat to tuck into as you sit in front of the fire and get ready for Santa’s arrival.’ 

This isn’t the first new Twix flavour to be released by the company. In February Co-op started selling salted caramel versions of the bar and there’s also white chocolate editions available.
