The KitKat Chunky is a rare thing – a spin-off chocolate bar that people love as much as the original, if not more.
The original four-bar KitKat is a fine chocolate, to be sure, but the British public needed something with a little more substance, a little more crunch, a little more… chunk, if you will.
BAM. Here comes the KitKat Chunky, baby. But Nestlé weren’t done yet. BAM, BAM. Here comes Peanut Butter KitKat Chunky, White Choc KitkKat Chunky, Double Choc KitKat Chunky. They just kept coming. The pain kept raining down.
Where else could they take the now legendary chocolate bar? We’ll tell you: they’re taking it to New York City, via cheesecake.
Yep, Nestlé are launching a New York Cheesecake flavour KitKat chunky, and if that doesn’t sound like the most delicious thing in the world, you must have malt loaf in your ears.
Launching on September 18, the bars will feature a “creamy-tasting layer of New York Cheesecake filling” and will cost 65p RRP.
Don’t know about you, but that sounds like 65p well spent.
Food blog Nibbles ‘n’ Scribbles is inclined to agree; they got their hands on one, describing it so: “The creamy milk chocolate started off as the star of the show, then in came a smooth yet slightly intense vanilla flavour that did not taste artificial.
“The wafer acted as the base of the cheesecake and didn’t do a bad job. To me it had a light tanginess to it too, it could have done with a bit more but this is by far the best cheesecake flavoured jobby I have had.”
High praise indeed. Nestlé, we’re ready. Drop it on us.
