Japanese Kit Kat Gateau au Chocolat Flavor for Christmas

Now it’s mid-December, and a big event for everyone, Christmas, is nearing day by day. Here in my city, Niigata, the first snow of this year fell today, and we are now ready to welcome Santa.

Nowadays, I see Christmas-related products in nearby shops and stores, and a while ago, I came across this Gateau au Chocolat Kit Kat in a supermarket.

Kit Kat Gateau au Chocolat Flavor Chocolate Mini Bar

Although researching the product after returning home, I only found actual Gateau au Chocolat recipes using Kit Kat chocolate in English Google search results, so this flavor seems to be a Japan-limited edition.

This Kit Kat chocolate, which I purchased at 284 yen, comes in individually wrapped mini bars, as always, and contains ten pieces. The wrapper has two designs with which I can associate Christmas.

As for the taste too, the Kit Kat chocolate bar captures the flavor of Gateau au Chocolat very well by using actual 2 percent strawberry juice and rum. It is so good, but last, I gave it a twist I have been loving.

I tried baking these Kit Kat chocolate bars with the method I introduced in this post. That worked perfectly this time too, and the resulting baked ones became much more like actual Gateau au Chocolat!
