KitKat fans spot new flavour in Tesco and can't get over one detail
KitKat has released a new flavour of its KitKat Chunky bars that has been spotted in Tesco and fans can't get over a specific detail as many say they 'need to try it out' There's no denying that Brits enjoy chocolate with so many brands available, including Cadbury, Galaxy, KitKat, Maltesers and Thorntons. A chocolate bar is many foodies' go-to snack when craving something sweet and indulgent. With so many different choices on supermarket shelves and new products regularly being released, shoppers are spoilt for choice and this can make it harder to pick one. Often, foodies pick classic chocolate products that have been around for years but new treats spark the curiosity of some as well, such as the KitKat Chunky Salted Caramel Duo bar, which comes hot off the heels of the new rolo flavour. Popular social media account New Foods UK posted a photo of the new Nestlé chocolate bar on Facebook and shared that they spotted it at Tesco. The post has garnered hundreds of likes and several comments, with KitKat fans surprised by one detail. A Facebook user exclaimed: 'Size of that," while another exclaimed: 'Looks huge!' Others left comments, including 'wow', 'Omg' and even a row of the 'shocked face' emoji with no words. Fans who have already tasted the new chocolate bar reported: 'These are seriously good' and 'These are lovely.' Some users shared that they would like to try the KitKat treat with remarks such as 'Yes please' and 'Need to give this a try.' The description of the chocolate bar on the KitKat website reads: '68g KitKat® Chunky DUO salted caramel chocolate bar. 'Iconic crispy wafer topped with a layer of salted caramel filling, all wrapped in a tasty layer of smooth milk chocolate. A KitKat® with an extra layer of indulgence.' It adds that the sweet treat has no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives. The new 'huge' KitKat Chunky Salted Caramel Duo bar has a retail price of £1.50 each and it joins the KitKat Salted Caramel sharing bar, which is also new and features a marbled chocolate design. Salted caramel has become a popular flavour in the culinary world with the introduction of food and beverages with this sweet and salty taste. Häagen-Daz launched its salted caramel ice cream in 2008 and soon after, Starbucks began selling its salted caramel hot chocolate leading to many more products with this flavour flooding the mainstream market, as per The Fizzy Tarte. KitKat is one of the chocolate brands owned by Nestlé, a major Swiss multinational food and drink company. The brand is instantly recognisable for its wafer layers covered in milk chocolate and its iconic slogan 'Have a break…have a KitKat.' There is a variety of KitKat products with milk, dark and white chocolate and a range of flavours, from peanut butter to hazelnut to orange. Fans can also enjoy the two and four finger milk chocolate bars, the KitKat Chunky range and the more recent sharing bars.

How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.

KitKat lovers race to B&M to buy 2 new flavours 'they can't wait to try'
B&M shoppers are planning a trip to the popular store after spotting two new flavours of KitKat are available. The iconic chocolate bar, which was founded in the 1930s, is sold in more than 80 countries KitKat fans are keen to snap up two new flavours of KitKat after they were spotted at B&M stores. The Nestlé chocolate bar, made up of layered wafers coated in milk chocolate, has been a mainstay on countless confectionery shelves up and down the country since it was first launched in 1935 as the 'chocolate crisp'. Over the years, various flavours of the beloved chocolate bar have delighted fans, including a Rolo Caramel version of the KitKat Chunky released in May, and now two new flavours are currently creating a flurry of interest. Popular food-focused account New Foods UK shared an image of the two new bars across social media after they were seen at B&M. The new flavours are Honeycomb Buzz, made with honeycomb flavour, and Gold Crush, made with 'crushed caramel crisps'. New Foods UK shared the image, captured in the aisle at a B&M store, on both Facebook and Instagram. On Facebook, people were keen to share their thoughts in the comments section. One person said: 'I have to get these'. Another said: 'Very interesting' while a third said: 'Can't wait to try them'. Someone else commented: 'Ooh now we're talking'. Countless others simply tagged their friends to direct them to the post. Over on Instagram, the response was similarly enthusiastic. One person who had tried them shared: 'Both very good!' while many others tagged their pals to draw their attention to the new flavours. KitKat was originally founded in the 1930s by British confectionery company Rowntree's. According to KitKat's website, it came about through the desire to create 'a chocolate bar that could be consumed on-the-go without creating a mess'. In the late 1980s, it was taken over by Nestlé and is now 'sold in over 80 countries and is one of the most popular chocolate bars worldwide'. New Foods UK has cultivated a dedicated following on social media due to its consistent updates offering photos and videos of all the latest sweet treats, snacks and more found in supermarkets and other retail outlets across the nation. The account, which has an impressive 373,000 followers on Instagram, frequently posts reviews after sampling new products, too. Famed retailer B&M, where the new KitKats have been spotted, is similarly popular for its wide range of household goods and products, from food and beverages to home accessories and even gardening supplies. It was established by Malcolm Billington and Brian Mayman, with the first shop opening its doors in Cleveleys, Lancashire, back in 1978. Its now renowned name originates from its founders, although it was initially known as Billington & Mayman before being abbreviated to B&M. Since its inception in the 1970s, it has expanded and now operates more than 740 shops in the UK, along with 124 stores in France.
