Key takeaways

  • A fan-favorite chocolate bar is finally back at Trader Joe's.
  • The TJ's candy replicates a luxurious German chocolate bar.
  • Signs suggest this bar might be a springtime-only offering.

Trader Joe’s has so many candy offerings, it doesn’t even fit in just one area of the store. For example, you’ll probably find the Strawberry Sour Candy Belts in a different location than the Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups. And when it comes to seasonal treats, TJ’s scatters them all over the store, sometimes putting the same item in multiple locations as a kind service to shoppers to ensure they don’t accidentally miss something irresistible. 

Some candy may be near the crunchy, salty snack section, not too far from the current limited-time, Garlic Butter Irish Potato Chips and the brand’s always-in-stock Classic Potato Chips. Some candy may be on the freestanding shelves in front of each cashier lane, enticing you to throw one more thing in your basket as you wait to check out. And some candy may be on shelves above the freezer section. 

Wherever your TJ’s keeps the candy bars, you’re going to want to head there ASAP to grab a bar—or five—of a returning chocolate bar that so many fans call their favorite.

Trader Joe’s Milk Chocolate Bar With Corn Flakes Is Back

“It’s terrible you wouldn’t like it don’t buy it! They’re all mine!”

That’s one of the comments, clearly a sarcastic one, on @traderjoesnew’s Instagram post announcing the return of the Milk Chocolate Bar With Corn Flakes. Imported from Belgium, the candy costs $2.99 a bar. 

“I wish it was dark chocolate [but] I did enjoy the crunch and how it’s precut to smaller-larger sizes,” writes @traderjoesnew, but many of the account's followers love that it’s milk chocolate.

“It’s my fave and perfect as it is with milk chocolate!“ exclaims one. And others follow suit with their praises. “One of the best chocolate bars I ever had,” says another.

Trader Joe's Milk Chocolate Bar With Corn Flakes Replicates a German Favorite Minus the Cost

Many fans on Reddit and Instagram compared these bars to the Ritter Sport Corn Flake, a popular flavor from the German chocolate maker. However, that comparison brings a high bar to clear.

"Ritter white chocolate cornflake bar is the goat," said one commenter. "Not sure if I've ever seen it in the USA though."

With this many enthusiasts chiming in, we’re thinking this is one delicious candy bar. On the Instagram post, the candy bars are shown in a special spring-like, Easter-ish display, making us think this treat’s not going to be around long after the holiday. So if you want the chance to try it, you better hit up TJ’s before it disappears.
