With its fresh and fruity berry flavor and naturally bold Millennial pink color, ruby chocolate is introducing something new to the world of chocolate—and this Easter, Nestlé is offering a special new kind of KitKat Easter egg made with ruby cocoa beans.
Last year, KitKat unveiled a ruby chocolate version of its signature crispy wafer and these naturally colored pink eggs offer a fun way to celebrate the holiday. The Easter eggs are wrapped in pink foil and are packaged with packs of the previously introduced pink chocolate wafer biscuits.
Since the discovery of this fourth kind of chocolate, ruby chocolate products are continually being introduced to consumers, with many brands targeting Millennials who would appreciate the new flavor experience and color of the confections.
