If you&#8217;re able to notice it, you have a better nose than mine or you&#8217;re a dog. And if you&#8217;re a dog and can read this, that&#8217;s a good doggie.

Much like its aroma, its flavor lacks a cookie presence, but the chocolate and caramel are there. However, they don&#8217;t taste like Twix&#8217;s chocolate and caramel. To test this further, I ate a mini Twix with enough of the sweet seasoning to partially bury it, and the candy bar ended up not tasting like a Twix.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/twshakers4.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Twix Shakers on Popcorn\" title=\"twshakers4.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While its Twix-ness is questionable and it tastes a bit odd on its own, the sweet powder does a tasty job enhancing other foods. Well, not an actual Twix, but I did find that it pairs well with a number of foods, many of which are recommended on the bottle. Here&#8217;s a short list of things it worked well with &#8212; iced coffee, hot oatmeal, overnight oats, ice cream, Cheerios, popcorn, and a banana smoothie. However, in order to get the seasoning&#8217;s flavor in most of those, I had to triple the serving size (1 teaspoon).<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/twshakers5.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Twix Shakers Water\" title=\"twshakers5.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Because there&#8217;s almost a pound of this stuff in the bottle, I decided to go off the beaten path with my what I put this on. I tried it on foods like French fries, green grapes, eggs, and in plain water. All were bad choices.<\/p>\n<p>Like most refrigerated coffee creamers from International Delight and Coffee mate, Twix Shakers doesn&#8217;t taste very good when it&#8217;s consumed on its own. Its chocolate and caramel flavor is definitely a downgrade from the actual candy bar. But when it&#8217;s added to the right foods, it does make them taste better. It&#8217;s worth giving it a fair shake.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCLOSURE:<\/strong> I received a free product sample from B&#038;G Foods.
