Announced as the brand's first fresh donut, the 7-Eleven Caramel Bar Made with Twix Donut is a hybrid treat that merges the textures and flavors of two favorite desserts. Crafted as a bar-shaped donut, the treat is topped with caramel icing before being drizzled with chocolate and sprinkled on top with chopped pieces of Twix candy bars. The color of the donut with the icing was meant to replicate the look of the candy bar in order to make it easily recognizable as a different take on the classic treat.
The 7-Eleven Caramel Bar Made with Twix Donut is available at participating locations across the US for a limited-time and targets the growing number of consumers on the hunt for unexpected variations of their favorite desserts.
