Just in time for Easter, there will be two new Kit Kat flavors: apple pie and carrot. Unveiled by [Nestle Japan](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nestle-easter-products), the new chocolate bar options went on sale on March 16th at a limited number of Japanese outlets.

In addition to the new Kit Kat flavors, which come in a pack of 12, Nestle Japan is also offering 13 Easter-themed packages. The bunny-sporting designs are etched into the actual chocolate.

So if you are celebrating the resurrection of Christ in Japan this year, you should be sure to pick up at least two packs of these [Easter chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nestl-confectionery-easter-season-2025). Even though apple pie and carrot are not typically flavors one would pair with chocolate, the novelty is well worth a try.
