People are divided over a special edition of a popular waffle bar hitting the shelves of British supermarkets.
KitKat’s mint cookies and cream bar is only available at B&M stores – and shoppers are either obsessed with it or put off.
This is the first time the chocolate has hit UK shelves, having previously only been spotted in Australian supermarkets.
Member of Facebook group Snack Reviews recently posted A picture of the minty chocolate bar, which takes the regular KitKat and sandwiches it between mint cookies and cream flavor.
The person claimed the chocolate bar is available in the budget store for £2.99 – and people were quick to share their thoughts on the flavour.
The chocolate is only available in B&M stores – and shoppers aren’t sure if they’ll be happy with it
KitKat’s mint cookies and cream bar, previously only seen in Australian supermarkets, is finally on UK shelves
Some people were less than impressed with the new flavor and called on the bar’s makers to ‘leave KitKat as is’ – with one even labeling the minty treat as ‘gross’.
Another account revealed their mixed feelings about the new bar: “I’m not so sure about this.”
The reported price of £2.99 for just one individual 170g bar was enough to deter someone who asked: ‘Who pays £3 for a chocolate bar?’.
Another user joked: ‘Why don’t you just eat a KitKat while brushing your teeth?’, although others were more easily persuaded: ‘Looks a bit weird but I’ll try!’
But many were impressed by the brand’s unique flavor, usually reserved for ice cream. One user said: ‘Wow looks nice, haven’t seen them anywhere’.
Another claimed: ‘That looks delicious’, while another user begged: ‘Please get me one for Christmas, I still haven’t tried this yet’.
This comes just months after KitKat brought back a product that had been on hiatus for three years.
KitKat Chunky Hazelnut is back once again for a limited period, ready to ignite a rivalry against its formidable foe, the classic KitKat Chunky Peanut Butter.
The chocolate is only available at B&M stores – and Facebook users are as turned off as they are delighted
According to Nestlé UK’s website, a ‘Battle of the Breaks’ is in store as the two bars will ‘battle for the hearts and tastebuds of Chunky fans across the country’.
The delicious chocolate bar is now available for purchase and consists of a crispy wafer, covered in a layer of hazelnut spread and coated in the milk chocolate that KitKat fans enjoy and love.
Speaking about the relaunch, Torin Zieboll, KitKat’s assistant brand manager, said: ‘It’s been three long years since KitKat Chunky Hazelnut was on sale in the UK.’
Since its launch in 1999, KitKat Chunky has produced many exciting limited edition flavored bars to delight fans.
