help Nestle KitKat Chunky FAQ
Is KitKat Chunky one thick finger or four separate fingers?
KitKat Chunky is normally one wide, thick wafer finger rather than the classic four-finger bar. A four-finger hazelnut KitKat is a different regional product and should not be confused with Chunky.
Does the original KitKat Chunky contain hazelnuts?
The standard Chunky Original combines a crisp wafer with milk chocolate and is not inherently a hazelnut product. Nestlé has sold separate regional flavors such as Chunky Peanut Butter and Hazelnut Cream.
What is KitKat Chunky called in the United States?
The closest US format has been marketed as Big Kat, while KitKat Chunky is the familiar name in the United Kingdom and many other markets. US KitKat products are made under license by Hershey, whereas Nestlé controls the brand in most countries.
When was KitKat Chunky introduced?
Nestlé launched the thick, single-finger format in the United Kingdom in 1998. It later expanded into flavors including white chocolate, peanut butter, caramel, and hazelnut cream.
