Nescafé launches new KitKat Latte

Nescafé

Nescafé has collaborated with the ultimate break-brand, KitKat, to create a delicious chocolate flavour latte.

The Nescafé KitKat Latte hits shop shelves this week and combines the best of both worlds, bringing together the rich flavours of Nescafé coffee with the signature chocolatey-wafer taste of KitKat.


This indulgent coffee joins a full line-up of other Nestlé confectionery collaborations, including Aero Peppermint and Quality Street Green Triangle. The line-up is proving to be popular with consumers as both the Nescafé Peppermint Aero Mocha and Nescafé Quality Street Mocha are the top two best-selling new products across in-home coffee, year to date [Circana & Kantar, Average 4w/e 02.11.24].

Each crafted with fresh milk, the frothy lattes and mochas deliver a sweet taste, balanced aroma and creamy texture, with a serving coming in at under 100 calories when prepared according to instruction.

“We are thrilled to continue our collaborations with iconic Nestlé confectionery brands. The chocolatey-wafer flavour of KitKat perfectly complements the aromas of Nescafé coffee. We’re excited to be bringing more unique and indulgent experiences to coffee lovers in the UK,” Ingrid Hayes, marketing director for Nescafé at Nestlé UK & Ireland said.

“We’re also proud of the fact that real milk goes into the Nescafé frothy coffee range, produced here in the UK at our Dalston site, with milk sourced from dairy farms across Ayrshire and Cumbria.”

Through Nestlé’s partnership with First Milk, the business works with 85 farmers in a dairy operative across Cumbria and Ayrshire to provide high-quality fresh milk for brands made in the UK, such as KitKat and Nescafé Frothy Coffee.

Through the partnership, Nestlé’s goal is to lessen environmental impact by improving the sustainability and efficiency of the supply chain. Each farmer receives a ’sustainability bonus’ for taking practical measures that protect and enhance natural assets on their land.

Nescafé KitKat Latte is available in stores nationwide from 16 December. Each portion comes in an individual sachet, making it easy to enjoy this delicious latte at home or on the go, any day of the week.

Drink Trends 2025: Navigating economic challenges with innovation and flavour

2025 will do doubt be the year the drinks industry truly feels the repercussions of the global and UK economic climate, political turbulence at home and away, and the duty hikes threatened for such a long time coming into play. While inflation has seen a gradual reduction over the last 18 months, the increase in interest rates and the knock-on effect this has on household expenditure will continue to be a theme as we head into 2025. We may see some prosper, but for many, it will be a year of adaptation, change and resilience. However, as an industry, we innovate, shape tastes and trends, strive to deliver world class drinks to the on-trade and retailers, and find ways to drive pockets of growth.

2025 will not be easy, but it will be interesting and there are areas of growth shaping the industry during the year ahead.
