White chocolate can be a bit of a crapshoot. It’s a lot harder to get right than milk or dark chocolate; it has a tendency to be overly sweet, and in the absence of cocoa, it can be a bit one-note in its flavour.
The white chocolate here, however, is quite tasty, and blending it with milk chocolate thoroughly resolves the one-note issue.
This particular bar is basically a standard Kit Kat, but with some of the milk chocolate replaced with white. It’s way better than I was expecting it to be.
The presence of milder white chocolate actually emphasizes the wheaty flavour you get from the wafers, which does a great job of balancing out the overall sweetness of the bar. It’s delightful.
And the white chocolate is great — it has a nice creamy flavour, and is complimented quite nicely by the milk chocolate. It’s kinda like eating a standard Kit Kat, but then dipping the bars in whipped cream. The chocolate flavour is mellower, but not necessarily in a bad way.
