The Snickers Pecan candy bar is being launched by the brand to expand on its existing portfolio of products and provide consumers with a familiar yet alternative taste experience.
The candy bar starts off with the signature caramel, nougat and milk chocolate that the original is known for, but swaps out the usual peanuts for pecans. The result is a sweet, savory profile that leverages the taste and texture of the pecans to achieve something entirely new with a familiar twist.
The Snickers Pecan candy bar is making its way to a variety of retailers now in the US including Walmart and Dollar General alongside convenience stores and grocery stores alike. The candy bar is slated to arrive at drugstores and Family Dollar later this year.
