How many calories are in a Twix bar?
A standard 2-bar Twix package weighs 57 g and carries 286 calories. Per 100 g the bar runs 502 calories, which puts it at the top end of the candy aisle. Split the package the way it is scored and each bar is about 143 calories, which is the number most people are actually after.
You'd need to walk about 57 minutes to burn the 286 calories in one 2-bar package (57 g).

Twix quick facts
The record behind every number on this page is SR Legacy 168768, "Candies, MARS SNACKFOOD US, TWIX Caramel Cookie Bars". That is the classic bar: shortbread cookie, caramel, milk chocolate over the top. Two other SR Legacy Twix records exist, but they are different flavors rather than different measurements of the same candy, so they get their own section further down instead of being blended into an average.
The serving in the middle column is the USDA household measure for that record, a 2 oz package holding two bars. It is the unit sold at almost every checkout counter in the country.

| Total fat | 24.85 g | 14.2 g | 18% |

Verified nutrition data
Numbers on this page come from USDA FoodData Central, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s food composition database, and from manufacturer labels where a branded product is named. Last verified September 2026. How we verify our data →
There is no added sugars row above because USDA does not publish a separate added sugars value for this record, and total sugars have no Daily Value of their own. Cholesterol comes to 4 mg per package (1% DV) and potassium to 106 mg (2% DV), both small enough to ignore in a food log. The FDA Daily Value reference is what the percentages above are measured against.
US servings, from one bar to the 11-ounce bag
| Serving | Weight | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 1 oz | 28.3 g | 142 kcal |
| One 2-bar package, 2 oz | 57 g | 286 kcal |
| One 2-bar package, 2.06 oz | 58 g | 291 kcal |
| King size package, 4 bars | 95 g | 477 kcal |
| Share size bag, 11 oz | 312 g | 1566 kcal |
| Per 100 g | 100 g | 502 kcal |
Four of those weights come straight from USDA as household measures for this record, including the 11 oz share bag that most people treat as a multi-serving purchase and then eat in one sitting. The 1 oz line is our own arithmetic from the USDA 100 g figure, not a USDA serving, and so is the 143 calories per single bar quoted in the opening.
Two package weights sit side by side at 57 g and 58 g because the wrapper has been printed at both 2 oz and 2.06 oz over the years. The five-calorie gap between them is noise. Log whichever matches the wrapper in your hand and move on.
King size, Minis and Bites
| Version | Per 100 g | Typical pack | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Twix Caramel, standard | 502 kcal | 1 package, 2 bars (57 g) | 286 kcal |
| Twix king size | 502 kcal | 1 package, 4 bars (95 g) | 477 kcal |
| Twix Minis | 500 kcal | 3 pieces (30 g) | 150 kcal |
| Twix Unwrapped Bites | 500 kcal | 5 pieces (28 g) | 140 kcal |
The king size pack is the same candy at a different weight: four bars, 95 g, 477 calories. That is two-thirds more than the standard package, which is a bigger jump than the wrapper suggests. If a king size is what is in the vending machine, the honest move is to log all 477 or physically leave two bars in the sleeve.
The small formats are where the portion control actually happens. Three Minis or five Unwrapped Bites land at 150 and 140 calories, roughly half a standard package, and both come pre-counted. A few seasonal Twix products from the USDA branded database sit in the same range: XOXO Bar Minis at 150 calories for three cookies (30 g) and the Valentine's Exchange Bar at 80 calories for a single 16 g cookie. In a mixed bag, Mars Celebrations pieces run 517 calories per 100 g and Mars Minis Favorites 471, so a Twix pulled out of either is close enough to the numbers above.
Peanut Butter and Chocolate Fudge Twix
| Version | Per 100 g | Typical pack | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Twix Peanut Butter | 547 kcal | 1 package, 2 bars (54 g) | 295 kcal |
| Twix Chocolate Fudge | 553 kcal | 2 cookies (51 g) | 282 kcal |
Here is the trap. Peanut Butter Twix is genuinely richer per 100 g, 547 against 502, because peanut butter filling carries more fat than caramel. But its package weighs 54 g rather than 57 g, and the two effects almost cancel: 295 calories against 286, a gap of nine. Choosing the caramel bar to save calories saves you nothing worth counting.
The peanut butter version does trade differently on the other rows. It brings 9.18 g of protein and 3.1 g of fiber per 100 g against 4.91 g and 1.1 g for caramel, and its sugars drop from 48.25 g to 36.13 g. Its saturated fat is also lower, 15.76 g per 100 g against 18.96 g. Chocolate fudge sits at 553 calories per 100 g with the lowest saturated fat of the three, 4.96 g, and the highest sodium, 266 mg.
Saturated fat is the row to watch
Calories are not what makes this bar unusual. Saturated fat is. One 57 g package holds 10.8 g, which is 54% of the FDA Daily Value of 20 g, from a snack that takes about ninety seconds to eat. The king size pack pushes that to 18.0 g, or 90% of the day, before you have eaten a single meal.
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans advise keeping saturated fat under 10% of daily calories, and a candy bar is an efficient way to spend most of that allowance in one go. If saturated fat is the number you are managing, the practical answer is not a different candy but a smaller format: three Minis at 150 calories carry roughly 5.7 g, our own scaling of the standard bar's 18.96 g per 100 g.
One more ratio worth noticing. That same package delivers 27.5 g of total sugars against 0.6 g of fiber, a spread of more than 45 to 1. Twix is dessert in a wrapper, and it behaves like one in a food log.
How does Twix compare?
| Candy | Per 100 g | US serving | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Twix Caramel | 502 kcal | 1 package, 2 bars (57 g) | 286 kcal |
| M&M's MINIs Milk Chocolate | 502 kcal | 1 oz tube (28.3 g) | 142 kcal |
| NESTLE CRUNCH Bar | 500 kcal | 1 bar, 1.55 oz (43.9 g) | 220 kcal |
| WHATCHAMACALLIT Bar | 494 kcal | 1 bar, 1.7 oz (48.2 g) | 238 kcal |
The single-bar weights above are our own arithmetic from each USDA 100 g figure rather than USDA household measures.
Our take: per 100 g these four candies are effectively identical, spread across just 8 calories from top to bottom, so the density argument is dead on arrival. What separates them is how much candy the wrapper contains. Twix ships the heaviest standard package of the group at 57 g and therefore lands highest per purchase, 286 calories, while a 1 oz tube of M&M's MINIs is 142. Pick by package weight, not by brand. If you want a bar and want to stay near 200 calories, Crunch at 220 is the closest fit; if you want Twix specifically, buy the Minis.

Twix FAQs
How many calories are in one Twix bar?
One bar is about 143 calories, and the standard 2 oz package holds two of them for 286 calories. That per-bar figure is our own arithmetic from the USDA 100 g value of 502 calories, since USDA lists the package rather than the single finger. King size packs four bars.
How many calories in a king size Twix?
A king size Twix package weighs 95 g and delivers 477 calories across four bars. That is two-thirds more than the standard 57 g package at 286 calories. It also carries 18.0 g of saturated fat, or 90% of the FDA Daily Value, from one snack.
How many calories in Twix Minis?
Three Twix Minis weigh 30 g and come to 150 calories, since the Minis run 500 calories per 100 g. Five Unwrapped Bites, 28 g, land at 140. Either portion is roughly half a standard package, which is the practical reason to buy the small format.
Is Twix high in saturated fat?
Yes, a 57 g package holds 10.8 g of saturated fat, 54% of the FDA Daily Value of 20 g. The king size pack reaches 18.0 g, or 90%. Cocoa butter and milk chocolate do most of that work, so the saturated fat row climbs faster than the calorie row.
How much sugar is in a Twix?
A 57 g package contains 27.5 g of total sugars, against 0.6 g of fiber. Per 100 g that is 48.25 g of sugars. USDA does not publish added sugars separately for this record, so total sugars is the only measured figure available here.
Peanut Butter Twix vs caramel Twix calories?
Peanut Butter Twix is 547 calories per 100 g against 502 for caramel, but its package is 54 g rather than 57 g. The result is 295 calories versus 286, a gap of nine. Peanut butter also brings 9.18 g of protein per 100 g and 3.1 g of fiber.
How much protein is in Twix?
A 57 g package supplies 2.8 g of protein, 6% of the Daily Value. Per 100 g the bar holds 4.91 g. Peanut Butter Twix nearly doubles that at 9.18 g per 100 g. Candy is not a protein food, and the caramel version is a clear example.
How many calories in 100 g of Twix?
100 g of Twix caramel cookie bars is 502 calories, with 64.8 g of carbohydrate, 24.85 g of fat, 18.96 g of saturated fat and 4.91 g of protein. That is a little under two standard packages, since one package weighs 57 g and comes to 286 calories.
