Nutritional Summary
The product is classified as a confectionery item and is high in sugar, which is the primary ingredient. A single serving contains a significant amount of saturated fat relative to its small size, contributing over 10% of the daily recommended intake. While low in sodium and trans fat, its high sugar and saturated fat content make it an indulgence item rather than a healthy snack, warranting a 'POOR' rating.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Crunchy KitKat Shake
Blend 2 KitKat fingers with 200ml of chilled low-fat milk and a teaspoon of unsweetened cocoa powder. For a healthier twist, add half a banana for natural sweetness and creaminess. Serve immediately.
Health Benefits
This recipe incorporates the chocolate as a treat while adding calcium and protein from milk and potassium from the banana.
KitKat Fruit & Nut Bark
Melt the KitKat bar gently in a microwave. Pour the melted chocolate onto a parchment-lined tray and spread thinly. Sprinkle with chopped almonds, walnuts, and dried berries. Refrigerate until firm, then break into pieces.
Health Benefits
Enhances the snack with healthy fats, fiber, and antioxidants from nuts and berries, while controlling the portion size.
KitKat Yogurt/Oatmeal Topper
Crumble one KitKat finger over a bowl of plain Greek yogurt or oatmeal. Add a handful of fresh berries like strawberries or blueberries. Drizzle with a small amount of honey if needed.
Health Benefits
Adds a crunchy texture to a protein and fiber-rich breakfast, balancing the indulgence with nutritious ingredients.

Marketing Claims
The primary marketing slogan 'Have a break, have a KitKat' is a lifestyle claim and does not make any health or nutritional assertions. The product is correctly described as a 'Coated Wafer'. The marketing is not misleading about the product's nature as a confectionery item. However, the use of a very small serving size (1 finger) for nutritional reporting could be seen as questionable, as it may mislead consumers about the nutritional impact of consuming the entire pack, which is a common behavior.
