The KIT KAT® Flavor Club Sweepstakes invites fans to enter, at no cost, for the chance to be selected to join a limited group of KIT KAT® insiders who will receive in-development products and club member swag, delivered straight to their doorsteps.

Sweepstakes entrants who are selected to be club members will receive three kits during the debut year, timed to Fall 2020, Early 2021 and Late Spring 2021. The brand is excited to announce that the first kit will feature the highly anticipated KIT KAT® DUOS mocha + chocolate before it arrives on shelves nationwide this November.

"We listened to the overwhelmingly positive feedback from our recent KIT KAT® flavor launches," said Amy Minderman, director KIT KAT® Brand.
