Good lord this candy bar is good. Seriously. I think of all the Limited Edition candy I have tried, this is by far the best. The wrapper says “Coffee Caramel & Chocolate Cookie Covered in Milk Chocolate” and the coffee flavor is just right – not too strong and not too weak. The chocolate cookie goes perfectly with the coffee flavor and the milk chocolate. Looking on the ingredient list, I see “espresso ground coffee” as the last ingredient, so it looks like it gets its coffee taste honestly.
Just to make sure I wasn’t the only one who thought this Twix Java was good, I shared and gave one stick to my wife. She agreed it’s great. It’s definitely good enough to earn our coveted CandyAddict.com Awesomely Addictive Candy Award. It’s that good.
According to the press CD I got from Mars, “TWIX® Java will be available in retail stores nationwide in December 2007.” Most candies actually hit stores before their scheduled release date, so if you are hankering for some Twix Java goodness, I’d start looking for it in stores right about… NOW. No word on how long the limited edition will last, so get it while you can.
You know how Starbucks cafes are – they pop up on adjacent street corners, court one another, breed and multiply. You might drive or walk past a dozen of them during your daily commute to work. As if that weren’t enough, now Starbucks and Hershey’s are teaming up to offer coffee and chocolate flavored treats and confections, beginning this fall. 
They’re starting with a premium hot chocolate, which should hit shelves sometime this fall. The two companies are also looking into creating chocolate bars, truffles and chocolate-covered coffee beans.
