Has anyone tried the "More Nuts" and "More Caramel" types of Snickers bars?
I quite like both to be honest, there is not much more nuts and caramel in them but it is noticaeble and quite nice. Shame they are only limited edition.
What does everyone else think of them?

On the side of the packet it says 10% more nuts which at a guess may work out at roughly 1 or 1 and a half extra nuts max.
I thought that to be honest, but you really can taste a difference. I don't know how 1.5 extra nuts can do that.
They are like bricks to try and eat the caramel is really solid. I tried the first one (had a 4 pack) and thought maybe it was just because it had just come from the shop and the shop had been freezing so left them in a warmish place second one was the same so the last 2 I chucked in the microwave on a plate for 10-15 secs 15 secs was just making the chocolate go a bit gooey but tasted good.
Taste wise fab texture wise not so great. I now want Peanut Butter anything never mind just Snickers.
I've wanted to try the Snickers Caramel but your post has put me off trying it because I like my caramel on the soft side. I've wanted to try the Peanut Butter Snickers too but I think they're only sold in America because I've never seen them in UK stores.
I know I was so disappointed maybe I just got a bad batch but not rushing to buy them again. I love Reeses stuff especially the cups and nutrageous also Reeses pieces which are a semi reasonable subsitute for peanut butter M&Ms.
I have a shop locally now that sometimes stocks imported sweets but it's tough getting the ones I like and the peanut butter stuff usually goes first
That said I could just go and make some chocolate peanut butter fudge and that would probably keep me happy for a while.
I agree with you, I couldnt taste as much of the peanut butter flavour in the nougat but thought the More Caramel one seemed like a normal Snickers otherwise
Where can you get the almond one?
It's the first time i've bought snickers for ages and they are definately smaller and to be honest I couldn't tell you if they were more nutty or not
That's what I did lol. I also did that with the mars that was just caramel
I got it from a website that imports US groceries.
I think the address is www.americansweets.co.uk
If you like normal Snickers then you may as well try it because it just tastes exactly the same.
Just watch your teeth on it though.
Mine wasn't hard at all, it was just exactly like a normal Snickers.
I'd given him the more caramel one
Personally I prefer the more nuts ones although they are a bit hard as others have said
I wrote about More Nuts in 2010: http://www.foodstufffinds.co.uk/2010/01/more-nuts-limited-edition-snickers.html
And the More Caramel was called 'Maximus' back in 2011: http://www.foodstufffinds.co.uk/2011/02/snickers-maximus-uk-limited-edition-wh.html
On a related note - Skittles Confused first launched in the UK in 2008, so they aren't proper new either! http://www.foodstufffinds.co.uk/2008/09/skittles-confused-28908-sainsburys.html
*rant over*
This is the side effect of snack blogging for 4 years - nothing seems new any more! :-D
But it also makes you a snack expert
I didn't realise the More Nuts and More Caramel were just repackaged older bars but then again I don't remember those bars from first time around.
I'd actually be quite glad to see the More Nuts stay as part of the permanent range, hubby really enjoys them!
