Nestlé Caramel Kit Kat
Britain, the land of caramel, has never had a snack like this before. Not like the Kit Kat Chunkies where we would have a strip of caramel above the wafer, oh no, this is a regular Kit Kat with the caramel laced into the chocolate itself.
Being a Japanese Kit Kat, this of course comes in a delightful little box. There’s a pumpkin on the front for some reason, perhaps this is a Halloween edition? I don’t quite get the reference. Anyway, inside the box are of course two little packets, and inside those are the Kit Kats themselves.
These things look amazing, you can just about see what they look like on the box itself in the picture, that’s exactly how they look. With the regular milk chocolate Kit Kat design, and then a light yellow criss-cross pattern draped over it. Extremely pretty to look at, and the smell is so, so sweet.
Unbelievably sweet in fact. Very…caramelly I guess, much more so than some of the tame stuff we have here. That’s pretty much how these taste too, there’s not a hint of physical caramel in these, but boy have they got the flavour of it. I’m not normally a huge fan of caramel but I loved what they did here.
Overall, a great product. Japanese Kit Kats are really hit and miss, and this is a big hit. Each pack has 118 calories, 1.4g Protein, 12.9g Carbohydrates and 6.8g Fat.

How can I order them

You can’t.
Seriously, new Caramel Kit Kat are only chosen a few times a year, and the minimum requirements for applying are very steep. Even so, hundreds apply, but only a few are selected. If you seriously want to buy a Caramel Kit Kat, you’ll need to be an active, contributing user for well over a few months to even be considered. Pestering the current Kit Kats to become a Caramel Kit Kat essentially guarantees that you won’t be selected.

Yeah, fully agree with you here! This was the best KitKat I have tasted to date.
