Advantages: Tasty, Quite cheap, Nice especially if you like Kit Kat bars

Disadvantages: None, unless you don't like chocolate!

Everyone should be familiar with most chocolate bars available today, and one of the most recognisable of those is Kit Kat (which itself has actually been around for years, and even had a few spin-off products). But while the two-finger and four-finger bars are well known, there are now cubes of Kit Kat available.

The Product

Kit Kat Kubes are made by Nestle, were launched earlier in the year, and unlike previous Kit Kat spin-offs (Orange and Mint varieties) they should be around for a bit longer. Kat Kat Kubes are basically small chunks of the well-established fingers of wafer covered in thick milk chocolate. Not a great deal of difference to a Kit Kat bar so if you like those you'll like Kit Kat Kubes.

One Kit Kat Kube is like a bite of a Kit Kat finger (although possibly a bit chunkier), and there is no difference in taste or consistency. The words 'Kat Kat' even appear on each individual cube, just like on the fingers of Kit Kat. The only real difference is that Kit Kat Kubes are completely covered in chocolate.

Kit Kat Kubes usually come in a 50-gram bag, although a larger size is available. The front of the pack has the distinctive 'KIT KAT' logo on it, plus the word 'Kubes' in blue lettering below. There is also a picture of what the cubes look like.

Overall Opinion

Kit Kat Kubes ar
e not only a good idea as a spin-off product of something that is widely loved, but also a great and tasty chocolate snack that will surely appeal to anyone who loves Kit Kat bars. As with most chocolate, it can be quite fattening and loaded with sugar, but these bite-size cubes can be easily shared with someone else, or just eaten in moderation! Price-wise, you can expect to pay between 30p and 45p for the 50g bag - I got mine from One-Stop for 40p, but I expect most supermarkets sell them for less.

All in all, a great product that is worth a try, even if you haven't really enjoyed Kit Kats in the past, or just want to try something new and a bit different.
