New Twix Fino

[GayleH]

Just thought I'd let you know the syn value of the new Twix Fino (supposedly lighter and less cals than the original Twix bar).

Well, it has 2 fingers and each finger is 4.5 syns, so 9 syns for the whole thing.

Saves 5 syns but still think it's pretty high for a 'light' choccy bar.

Thanks for the info.

 

[henna!]

oh! not heard or seen these yet! Thanks for the info

Thanks - I love a nice Twix! If the fingers are the same size, then one would do to curb the cravings - seems a good deal for 4.5 syns!

 

[krupskaya]

Thanks for letting us all know...

Thanks will keep an eye out. I like dipping Twix in my tea!

They're a bit of a con really. They've removed the biscuit and replaced it with wafer so not so nice. Once I had worked out the syns I gave it straight to hubby to eat, wasn't going to waste my syns on a fraudulant Twix, lol.

Doesnt that just make it a Drifter? Can you even still get Drifters? Does anyone remember them?

 

[Mel1981]

Yes I remember them and I do think you can still get them but not 100% sure

 

[RubyMoss]

You can indeed still get Drifters, we sell them in work xxx

 

[rebecca02uk]

Not worth the syns in my eyes lol x

The real con seems to be they are tons smaller than a regular Twix.

This is what I assume is a normal 2 finger Twix bar:

Twix Twix 58g twin bar

14 Syns on Extra Easy

Original 14 Syns

​

The Fino bar is apparently 20g lighter - so I would blimmin hope it had less syns!

Twix Twix Fino 38g twin bar

9½ Syns on Extra Easy

Original 9½ Syns

Green 9½ Syns

​

For comparison, I also looked up a Drifter:

Nestle Drifter 52g bar

13 Syns on Extra Easy

Original 13 Syns

Green

I bought one of these today! Gonna try it later I also have single finger Drifters

 

[Caza]

How many syns then for a single drifter - 99 cals one??

I tried one of these last week after spotting it in a shop - personally I'd rather spend the extra syns and have a proper Twix - didn't like this at all, and it was a lot of syns for what it was.

Time Out is nicer as a choc/wafer type snack, I think and is 8.5 syns.

I tried this tonight. It was very disappointing and not worth 9 syns.
