Twisties has unveiled a limited-edition Hot Chilli Honey flavour in collaboration with Capilano Honey, tapping into the global hot honey trend that has taken the food world by storm.
Hot Honey Craze Hits Australia
The sweet-and-spicy combination has become a sought-after addition to pizzas, fried chicken, and even vegetable dips. Now, Twisties is bringing the trend to the snack aisle with a crunchy twist.
Available at Woolworths, Coles, and independent retailers, the new flavour has already garnered rave reviews from hungry Australians, with fans calling it “so good” and “the best collab” of 2026.
Partnership with Capilano Honey
For this launch, Twisties partnered with Capilano Honey, Australia’s favourite honey brand. The product combines the signature Twisties crunch with a sweet-and-spicy flavour profile, aiming to become a crowd favourite.
“Following the fan-favourite success of Twisties Spicy Ramen, it was clear Australians weren’t ready to dial down the heat,” said Michelle Sonnleitner, Twisties Marketing Manager. “And what better way to answer the call than by partnering with Australia’s iconic honey brand, Capilano, to create Twisties Hot Chilli Honey. Bringing together the perfect balance of sweetness and spice that reflects the adventurous spirit we’re seeing in both food culture and everyday connections.”
Consumer Trends and Winter Snacking
Skye Giles, Capilano’s Senior Brand Manager, added: “Australians are embracing sweet-and-spicy flavours like never before, and Capilano Hot Chilli Honey has been a big part of that trend. We’re thrilled to partner with Twisties to bring this flavour combination to an iconic Australian snack.”
As winter sets in, research indicates that 33% of Australians believe sharing snacks is more intimate than going out for a fancy dinner. The limited-edition Twisties Hot Chilli Honey is positioned as the perfect snack for movie nights or quality time with loved ones.
With its limited availability, consumers are encouraged to act fast to secure a packet before they sell out.
