What You're Actually Getting
This is Twix, but with hazelnut in the mix alongside the usual caramel and milk chocolate. Nine bars for under two quid. That's the pitch, and it's a fairly compelling one even before you taste anything.
I'll be straight with you: the original Twix is comfort eating at its most dependable. The hazelnut version takes that and adds a slightly richer, nuttier layer. Not Nutella-level intense, more like a gentle nod in that direction. The biscuit base is still there doing its job, the caramel is properly chewy, and the chocolate coating holds it all together without being waxy or thin.
Who This Is Actually For
If you're a Ferrero Rocher devotee, this will scratch a similar itch at a fraction of the cost per bar. Kids will absolutely love it, but honestly, so will anyone who keeps a drawer of "emergency chocolate" at work. You know the type.
That said, if you're expecting a proper hazelnut praline situation, dial your expectations back a notch. The hazelnut flavour is present but not the star of the show. It plays support.
One Honest Reservation
The price is excellent, but there's no "was" price here, so this isn't a dramatic markdown situation. It's more of a solid everyday value find, boosted by a Subscribe and Save option that drops it further. The community heat (786 degrees on HotUKDeals) suggests people are genuinely buying, not just clicking.
At roughly 17p a bar, the risk of disappointment is pretty low. Worth chucking in your next grocery order to find out.
