I adore Kit Kats, and my curiosity about this new springtime edition quickly became an obsession for me. I scoured every single candy aisle, seasonal display, and end cap in each store near my house. Anytime I saw a yellow bag of candy, I would get excited, only to be immediately disappointed. I began to lose hope.<\/p>\n<p>Then, the other day, I was in Fry&#8217;s, shopping for random items and not even actively searching for the candy. I turned the corner of an aisle, looked down, and voila: there they were, in a nondescript, out of place Easter candy display. I immediately forgot everything else that I had come shopping for and rushed home.<\/p>\n<p>I tore into the bag and unwrapped one of the small bars. The smell of soft, fragrant lemon hit my nostrils. The candy was a pale yet welcoming yellow.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Kit-Kat-Lemon-Crisp-Coating.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kit Kat Lemon Crisp Coating\" title=\"Kit Kat Lemon Crisp Coating.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The coating on the outside of the Kit Kats is sweet, slightly tart, and distinctly lemony, without being overwhelming. It doesn&#8217;t taste excessively artificial either, which is a major plus. The flavor reminds me of the cream in the lemon sandwich cookies that I used to eat when I was a child. It is undeniably delightful and oddly refreshing.<\/p>\n<p>Texturally, it&#8217;s very similar to the chocolate coating on traditional Kit Kats that we&#8217;re all familiar with. It&#8217;s not necessarily chocolate, though. The packaging states that the candy is &#8220;crisp wafers in lemon flavored white cr\u00e8me.&#8221; As far as my mouth is concerned, it&#8217;s basically lemon-flavored white chocolate.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Kit-Kat-Lemon-Crisp-Give-Me-a-Break.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kit Kat Lemon Crisp Give Me a Break\" title=\"Kit Kat Lemon Crisp Give Me a Break.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The wafers on the inside provide the same reliable crunch that they always have. I delicately ate the coating off one of them, leaving only the wafer layers. I wanted to see if they were lemon-flavored, and as far as I can tell, they&#8217;re not. They taste the same as a standard Kit Kat when you remove the chocolate. But that&#8217;s all right because the citrusy coating brings enough flavor for the whole bar.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, Kit Kat Lemon Crisp bars are heavenly and embody everything I want in a lemon-flavored sweet. Supposedly, they&#8217;re only a seasonal offering, but if they sell well, maybe Hershey will keep them around. I hope that&#8217;s the case because I&#8217;m not prepared to lose them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $3.50<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 9 oz. bag<br \/>\n<strong>Purchased at:<\/strong> Fry&#8217;s<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 9 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (4 pieces) 170 calories, 9 grams of fat, 6 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 30 milligrams of sodium, 22 grams of carbohydrates, 15 grams of sugar, and 2 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been searching for the new Kit Kat Lemon Crisp for a couple of weeks now.
