Snapping Chocolate Christmas Countdowns

The Kit Kat Advent Calendar is Made Up of 24 Fingers

Although counting down to Christmas has almost come to an end, people might want to keep their eyes open for the Kit Kat Advent Calendar next year. Unsurprisingly titled '24 Breaks before Christmas,' it is essentially one very large Kit Kat bar. But what sets it apart from the classic four-finger bars, the Kit Kat Advent Calendar is numbered and has some fun iconic images to signify more special days throughout this period.

Conceived by JWT, an ad agency based in Frankfurt, Germany, the Kit Kat Advent Calendar is perhaps one of the most natural creations when it comes to this chocolate treat. It was art directed by Andreas Villing and Oliver Wohlfarth with creative direction by Mark Karatas.
