When it comes to chocolates, we all have our favorites. And there is no denying that Hershey’s chocolate understands what so many of us want when it comes to candy bars. Whether you’re looking at a Reese’s peanut butter cup/Reese’s shape, or even a Kit Kat bar, you know what you’re getting every time.
However, what surprises us the most is the fact that Kit Kat is only now coming out with a Santa shaped version of their iconic candy bar. Even with the massive success that Reese‘s Peanut Butter Cups have found in the seasonal shape game, it still surprises me that more brands don’t offer seasonal shapes. (That being said, we can’t forget the fact that Butterfinger does offer skulls/skeletons at Halloween.)
So we were really excited when Kit Kat finally decided that for 2024 they were going to give us Santa shaped chocolates. Basically, they are Santa shaped Kit Kats. And maybe it’s just because we love the fact that they are shapes, but much like the Reese‘s Peanut Butter shapes, the Kit Kat shape is Top-tier chocolate. I think it’s because there’s just a little bit more chocolate to wafer ratio, that it just works. Every single bite is perfect.
Kit Kat Santas are a perfect addition to the holidays
Maybe it’s the fun of chocolate in fun shapes, or it could be the way the ratios are just slightly different from the normal bar, but whatever it is, the shaped candy bars just hit different. And having Kit Kat Santas as an option this holiday season is definitely giving us another layer of fun. And we are definitely here for the fun and the chocolate.
The fact that we get to enjoy a bit of festive fun with our chocolate is just the added bonus that makes this perfect for stocking stuffers and treats all season long. This is what the holidays are meant to be. Because we are not going to say no to Santa shaped Kit Kat bars. Now, we just need them to decide to make Halloween and Easter shapes with their Kit Kat bars and it’s a done deal for us.
