I didn’t expect to fall in love with this chocolate bar, but wow—it completely won me over! The Trader Joe’s Milk Chocolate Bar with Corn Flakes is a simple yet perfect combination of creamy, high-quality milk chocolate and crispy corn flakes that add the best kind of crunch. It’s the kind of treat you take one bite of and immediately go back for more.
We loved it so much that we finished the first bar way too fast and had to go back for more. It’s not overly sweet, has a silky smooth texture, and the crunch from the corn flakes makes it incredibly satisfying. And let me tell you—it pairs beautifully with a hot cup of coffee! If you’re a fan of chocolate with a little texture, this is a must-try.
Location in Store
You can usually find this in the chocolate and candy section at Trader Joe’s ( sometimes next to Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups) or near the checkout area (which makes sense—it’s the kind of thing you grab impulsively and never regret). That's how i bought mine!

Taste and Texture
This chocolate bar nails the balance between creamy and crunchy. The milk chocolate is rich, smooth, and melts perfectly, while the corn flakes add a delightful crispness without making the bar feel heavy. Unlike some crunchy chocolate bars where the texture takes over, the corn flakes here feel light and airy, blending perfectly with the chocolate.
We tried it on its own and alongside coffee, and let me just say—this is the ultimate coffee companion. The deep chocolate flavor mixed with the crunchy flakes makes it a morning or afternoon pick-me-up that feels like a little indulgence.

Like most chocolate bars, this one is high in sugar and fat, but honestly? It’s worth every bite. It’s the kind of treat I don’t mind indulging in because the flavor and texture are just that good. This bar reminded me of Ritter Sport corn flake milk chocolate bars that i used to eat when i was little. So good!
