Who made kit kats?
The Kit Kat candy bar was originally made by Rowntree's, a company in York, United Kingdom, in 1935. The company trademarked the names "Kit Cat" and "Kit Kat" for the bar. The bar was sold in London and Southern England, labeled as something "a man could take to work in his pack up." It was switched to the "Kit Kat Chocolate Crisp" in 1937. However, with World War Two milk was in short supply, so Kit Kat's flavor was changed from milk chocolate to dark chocolate, and its wrapping was changed form red to blue. After the war, it was changed back to milk chocolate and was re-adorned with its familiar red. The biggest changes for Kit Kat happened when Nestle bought Rowntree, the company that owned Kit Kat. Nestle then had worldwide control of the Kit Kat brand, not just in North America. One of the first changes Nestle made was opening new places for making and selling Kit Kat in Japan and also Malaysia, India, and China. Nestle also changed the Kit Kat recipe from using French flour to British flour, which made production less expensive. Because of this, Kit Kat lost its "snap" that was the key in all of Kit Kats marketing in the 1970's and 80's. After that change, the wrapping was changed from foil and paper to plastic. Additional Kit Kat flavors were then introduced. Besides the original flavor, the "Kit Kat Orange" was launched in 1996 in the United Kingdom. Following that were mint and caramel. In 1999, the "Kit Kat Chunky" was produced, and was enjoyed by costumers globally. Different flavors of Kit Kat have kept launching through the 2000's. In 2000, Nestle broadened its market in Japan, Russia, Turkey, Venezuela, and Eastern and Central Europe. Today, the Kit Kat bar is made in twenty-one different countries through Nestle: United Kingdom, New Zealand, Egypt, Japan, Canada, Australia, Venezuela, Algeria, Untied Arab Emirates, South Africa, Germany, China, Malaysia, Turkey, Spain, Mexico, Indonesia, India, Bulgaria, Russia, and Ukraine. The size of Kit Kat has changed along with the flavors. The original bar had four separable wafers. In the 1930's, they created a two wafer Kit Kat, which is the most popular today. The "Kit Kat Chunky" had one large wafer. The amount of wafers depends on where you are. In Japan, the Kit Kat Petit is a half of a wafer, while there is a three wafer Kit Kat in Arabia. There are also Kit Kat family sized bars in Australia and France that contain twelve wafers. The Kit Kat has branched out form candy bars, as well. In Ireland, North America, and the United Kingdom, Nestle makes a "Kit Kat Ice Cream," and in Malaysia there are "Kit Kat Drumsticks." 2010 brought the news that a five million production line was built by Nestle in York, United Kingdom. With the help of this line, over one billion Kit Kat bars will be made every year. Obviously, the Kit Kat bar has been a great success. It is hard to tell, however, if it would have had the same success if Nestle had not bought Rowntree's, or if Rowntree's had not sold to Nestle. Based on Kit Kat's success, it appears it was a good thing that Nestle did buy Rowntree's and because of that Kit Kat customers get to taste their favorite candy whenever they want.
