Nestlé KitKat has launched a nostalgic new flavour for the summer, inspired by a classic ice-cream trio – KitKat Neapolitan.

With its creamy vanilla and sweet strawberry flavours, complemented by a smooth milk chocolate base and the signature crispy wafer, the company stated KitKat Neapolitan has been created to evoke a sense of nostalgia for Australian and New Zealander consumers.

Nestlé head of marketing confectionery, Melanie Chen, said the team was excited to launch KitKat Neapolitan for the summer season, describing the sweet treat as a trifecta of taste.

“With the new chocolate featuring classic flavours, it's bound to spark a debate over which iconic ice-cream inspired flavour comes out on top,” said Chen.

Nestlé KitKat Neapolitan is available at Australian supermarkets in a block for RRP $7.00 and 4-finger bar RRP $2.50, and will be coming to New Zealand shelves in mid-February.
