Nestlé Kitkat Chunky Orange (Limited Edition) Review

kitkat chunky orange limited edition

When Nestlé announced the launch of this new Kitkat Chunky flavour my reaction was a bit "meh" since they've already done it before, plus it exists in a small finger multipack format. However I've come round to the idea after realizing there's not a lot of orange chocolate bars on the market, aside from Terry's Chocolate Orange. It's always nice to have extra variety when you're a fan of orangey chocolate!

This bar combines the much-loved thick crispy wafer with a sweet orange flavoured milk chocolate. It's split into three portions like all Kikat Chunky's, which kind of spoils the aesthetic in my opinion. When Kitkat Chunky was first launched in the 90's it was just one long wafer finger, hence the name "Chunky". There was none of this "split into portions" nonsense that we have now! I supposed Nestlé had to do this to comply with some silly food regulations so I'll let them off.

Taste-wise it was very nice indeed. The orangey chocolate was rather light and refreshing, which made a nice change for me because I find Terry's Chocolate Oranges a bit sickly and overpowering these days. I much preferred it. It's still very sweet; of course, since it's Nestlé chocolate, but it works. The wafer was as crunchy and delicious as ever, proving that nothing beats Kitkat when it comes to wafer bars.

Overall I thought this was a tasty limited edition that makes a pleasant change from a regular Kitkat Chunky. I do think Nestlé could have been a bit more adventurous and tried a different flavour though - something like strawberry, lemon or passionfruit would be a lot more interesting!

  1. I find the orange flavour (at least with the 2 finger multipack versions) wears off eventually as I get used to the taste, and I sort of forget that it was orange flavoured chocolate in the first place. I would definately pick up this over a regular chunky - I find plain kit kats a little bland and boring.

  3. Nestlé has released a limited edition KitKat Chunky in the flavor of Orange. The bar consists of orange-flavored milk chocolate with wafer pieces throughout. I was excited to try this because I love both orange and chocolate flavors, and I’ve never seen them combined in a Kitkat before.

    The bar smells strongly of artificial orange flavor, but thankfully that doesn’t carry over too much into the taste. The milk chocolate is nice and creamy, and the orange flavor is pretty subtle. It’s not as strong as I was expecting, but it’s still a pleasant flavor combination. The wafer pieces add a nice crunch to the bar, and overall it’s an enjoyable experience.

    If you like orange-flavored candy or are just curious about this limited edition KitKat, then I would recommend giving it a try. It’s not my favorite Kit

    Thank you chocolate bouquet Philippines
