Kitkat Crisp Wafers in Milk Chocolate
What it is
This is a popular confectionery item consisting of light, crispy wafer fingers enrobed in smooth milk chocolate. The combination of textures, the crispness of the wafer and the melt of the chocolate, is a key characteristic. Each piece is individually portioned for convenience. The wafer layers are baked to achieve their signature crunch. The milk chocolate coating provides a sweet and creamy contrast.
