Ultra-Thin Wafer Cookies

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

New Kit Kat Thins are Set to Launch in March of 2021

— December 28, 2020 — Lifestyle
If you're looking for a way to indulge in a bit of chocolate without getting a stomach ache, the new Kit Kat Thins are a great option.

Over the past few years, many brands have rolled out 'thin' or 'slim' versions of popular candy bars, cookies, and other treats. For instance, there are now Reese's Thins Cups, Oreo Thins, and York Peppermint Pattie Thins. Now, Hershey's is set to expand its Thins lineup to include new Kit Kat Thins. The new version of Kit Kats feature two wafers in the center instead of the traditional three wafers. The result is all the same Kit Kat flavor that fans know and love, but a little less filling.

The new Kit Kat Thins are set to launch in the U.S. in March of 2021.
