The world's favorite break
The perfect balance of chocolate and wafer, there's a reason KitKat is enjoyed in more than 80 countries. The iconic brand is an international symbol for hitting the pause button on life - to enjoy a well-earned break.
From classic fingers to chunky, original to peanut butter, there is a KitKat for everyone.
In Japan alone, flavors include wasabi and sake - while the gift of a KitKat is customary for students sitting their exams. The country's KitKat Chocolatory even lets you design your own dream KitKat.
KitKat is the first global chocolate brand to source 100% of its cocoa through the Nestlé Cocoa Plan. Meaning there's no reason not to pause… and enjoy a break.
Breaks for Good
KitKat is using sustainably sourced cocoa through the Nestlé Cocoa Plan that is either certified Rainforest Alliance or verified Nestlé Cocoa Plan (in Latin America for example)
Enjoy a better break
Since 2023, part of the KitKat products, produced in Europe, are made with cocoa liquor coming from the farming families engaged in the Income Accelerator Program. This program incentivizes and enables cocoa-farming families to engage in practices in four areas:
- School enrolment
- Good agricultural practices
- Agroforestry activities
- Diversified incomes
Our aim is to reach 160 000 cocoa-farming families in our supply chain by 2030.
