KitKat is a chocolate-covered wafer bar confection created by Rowntree's of York in the United Kingdom in 1935. Originally known as Rowntree's Chocolate Crisp, it was rebranded as KitKat later in 1937. The brand has since become one of the most recognized chocolate products globally, known for its signature 'break' format.
Following the acquisition of Rowntree's by Nestlé in 1988, the brand came under Swiss ownership. Today, KitKat is produced in various factories around the world, including the United Kingdom, Germany, Bulgaria, Japan, and Australia. The product shown in the image features the Nutri-Score signaling it is intended for the European market, where Nestlé manages all aspects of production and distribution. It is important to note that in the United States, KitKat is produced under license by The Hershey Company due to a pre-existing licensing agreement made prior to Nestlé's acquisition.
