Kit Kat Chunky - Salted Caramel Popcorn (Tesco) By @Cinabar

This is a new UK flavour of Kit Kat, not an imported one as much as we love those it is nice to see bars which are more widely available here. The UK can’t compete with Japan’s Kit Kat selection but to be fair we do get a few nice varieties of our own. However like many British Kit Kats this new bar looks like it has fallen victim to caramel thinking (the idea that if you flavour it with caramel it will sell). We have had a lot of variations of caramel Kit Kat in the past, fudge caramel, salted caramel, gold caramel to name just a few. Here we have Kit Kat Chunky Salted Caramel Popcorn. At least there is a twist of popcorn too, it does make it a bit more interesting.

This Kit Kat is in the Chunky form and the pieces looked like there would’t be too much different in the texture from the popcorn, but somehow there was when I bit in. It had a popcorn feel that was either very clever or I was going mad. More importantly the flavour from the popcorn exploded, there was so much going on, a salty blast, sweet rich tones of caramel, and a load of proper popcorn flavour too. Wow, it was an impressive bar. I was wrong about saying it is just another caramel Kit Kat this Kit Kat Chunky Salted Caramel Popcorn is something rather fabulous.
