MilkyWay Biscuits: Full Review & Where to Buy

MilkyWay Biscuits are the European biscuit take on the iconic MilkyWay bar — crispy shortbread biscuits with a light nougat and caramel filling, coated in milk chocolate, delivering the classic MilkyWay flavor in a refined biscuit format. At $4.99 CAD at Sweet Palace, they're a wonderful discovery for MilkyWay fans. At Sweet Palace, we personally import and taste-test every European biscuit before listing it — MilkyWay Biscuits capture the essence of the bar in a lighter, more elegant format.

What are MilkyWay Biscuits?

A European product by Mars — shortbread biscuits with a light nougat and caramel cream filling, enrobed in milk chocolate. They translate the MilkyWay candy bar's three-layer flavor profile (nougat, caramel, chocolate) into individual biscuits. The MilkyWay bar, launched in the UK in 1935, is distinct from the North American MilkyWay — the UK version contains only a light nougat filling with chocolate coating, with no caramel layer (unlike the US version), making it significantly lighter; MilkyWay Biscuits more closely follow the UK MilkyWay flavor profile with an added caramel element.

How do MilkyWay Biscuits compare to the MilkyWay candy bar?

Lighter and more refined. The biscuit format produces a crunchier base, the nougat layer is thinner and more delicate, and the overall eating experience is less sweet and less heavy than the full candy bar. Ideal for situations where you want the MilkyWay flavor but something less substantial. Light nougat (the type used in MilkyWay bars) is made by aerating a cooked sugar-glucose syrup — air incorporation raises volume by 200–400%, producing a candy with significantly lower density than solid caramel or chocolate, and this lightness translates to the biscuit format as a more delicate, less filling confection.

Are MilkyWay Biscuits available in Canada?

Not through mainstream retail. These are European-market products available only through specialty importers. Mars distributes MilkyWay-branded biscuit products primarily through UK and European channels; North American retail has not carried MilkyWay Biscuits through mainstream distribution, and Canadian availability is limited to specialty import stores.
