Twist (confectionery)

Breads, Flatbreads and Savory Pastries

Twist is a bite-sized confectionery produced by the Norwegian company Freia, primarily for the Scandinavian market. It is sold in bags containing a variety of pieces, mostly chocolates with a filling in the center, and new pieces are added while old ones are discontinued frequently; only two pieces, Lakris (licorice) and Cocos, have existed since the product launched. The name Twist refers to the way each piece is wrapped. This description is adapted from Wikipedia contributors under CC BY-SA 4.0; changes were made. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/
