Twix is a popular chocolate bar that has been around since the late 1960s. It is known for its crunchy biscuit base, chewy caramel center, and creamy chocolate coating. But, does Twix contain peanut butter? Read on to learn the answer.
Is There Peanut Butter in Twix?
Original Twix does not have peanut butter in its list of ingredients. Its interior is made with a layer of biscuit that is topped with caramel. These interior components are surround by an outer layer of milk chocolate.
