[KitKat Chunky](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitkat-chunky-crunchy-double-chocolate) is bringing back two of its most iconic flavors for a limited time in the UK. The flavors are Mint, first launched in 2013, and Cookie Dough, first introduced in 2016. The new Cookie Dough variation is described as even more indulgent and creamy than the earlier version, giving consumers with a sweet tooth something to look forward to.

The popular flavors are back for a limited time and will be sold as part of KitKat Chunky's 'Flavourites' collection. The range is all about celebrating the fan-approved flavors launched by KitKat in past years and will be available starting in August with a retail run until early 2021.

'We know KitKat fans love the opportunity to rediscover [limited-edition flavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kit-kat-cotton-candy) and this is why we are bringing back two huge favourites this year," said Sascha Macchi, KitKat's brand manager about the UK launch.
