It’s hard not to be sad as summer starts to wind down. Teachers are setting up their classrooms, kids are going back to school and the temperatures are already starting to drop for some of us. Well, it’s time to turn that frown upside down, because I’m sharing the best news since Cinnamon Toast Crunch came out with Cinnadust.
You can now buy Twix Shakers Seasoning Blend at Sam’s Club!
What’s in the Twix Shakers?
It can be odd to hear a candy topping be called a “seasoning blend,” but that’s exactly what it is. The brand-new Twix Shakers might be the greatest dessert topping to come along since hot fudge. Each blend is filled with three enticing Twix flavors: chocolate, caramel and cookie. It’s everything you need to take every dessert to the next level. I’ll be mixing this stuff into my fudge brownie recipe!
You can also try it on your ice cream sundaes, chocolate chip cookies and so much more. Take your pancakes and waffles to the next level and sprinkle the good stuff all over it for the greatest Twix experience of your life. There’s no such thing as too much Twix—and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!
Psst: There’s a sneaky hidden message in the Twix logo.
Where Can I Buy Twix Shakers?
Twix Shakers will be exclusively at Sam’s Club starting September 1. Then, in the coming months, you can start looking for this Twix dust at other grocery stores , so don’t worry if you don’t have access to Sam’s Club. When you think about how much joy this seasoning will bring you and everyone you love, it’s a unanimous shopping decision—yes, please!
