What is Key Lime Pie Kit Kat?<\/h3>\n

Kit Kat’s latest limited edition bar features Key lime-flavored white cr\u00e8me.<\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

Kit Kat’s seasonal flavors always seem to hit the mark, so I’ve come to look forward to them. I especially appreciate Kit Kat’s dedication to a sensory and aesthetic experience, using creative colors and details to pay homage to its flavor inspiration. This year’s Key Lime Pie Kit Kat is no exception: its vibrant wrapper and pastel bar are as green as Kermit the Frog counting dollar bills in a grassy field.<\/p>\n

Kermit should exchange one of those bills for a Key Lime Pie Kit Kat because the candy is all-around delightful.<\/p>\n

Peeling off the wrapper yields a strong, divine aroma of vanilla and lime as a hint of what’s to come. The green white cr\u00e8me coating delivers on its promised flavor. A creamy vanilla taste is present in the coating, which is not too sweet, and adds flavor reminiscent of whipped topping.<\/p>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

However, the Key lime is still the most prominent flavor. It provides just enough zesty citrus bite, especially in the aftertaste. The standard Kit Kat wafer offers a crispy crunch that mimics pie crust texture, completing the experience of what it is like to enjoy Florida’s official state dessert.<\/p>\n

As this flavor grows in popularity, will Key lime replace lemon foods in my citrus-loving heart? Possibly. I loved Key Lime Pie M&M’s<\/a>, and these Kit Kats are even better due to that hint of sharp citrus. With more product testing, I might yet achieve my life’s dream of appearing on a Food Network show, identified by an oddly-specific job title like “Key Lime Pie Expert” or “Kit Kit Historian.”<\/p>\n

Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n

\"Limited<\/p>\n

It is hard to tell in photos, but embedded in the Kit Kat’s chocolate coating are flecks of what look like graham cracker crust crumbs. The crumbs don’t really carry a taste or texture. Although the bar’s ingredients list includes graham flour.<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

Key Lime Pie Kit Kats are a subLIME experience, combining creamy and crunchy elements with a Key lime zing.<\/p>\n
