This exciting sweet treat can be found in Sainsbury’s for £1 a bar.
The rare flavour goes by the name KitKat Chunky Funky and is Nestle’s latest limited edition bar.
The sought-after snack features a cocoa wafer in a marbled milk chocolate and white coating.
Shoppers have been quick to express their excitement with one describing the chocolate as “absolutely brilliant.”
While another added: “Oh I need to get to the shop.”
KitKat isn’t the only brand to recently launch a new flavour, as another popular confectionery brand has just released an all new caramel edition of their cult classic treat.
Terry’s have launched a chocolate caramel which is exclusive to the co-op for now.
Shoppers were also quick to spot two new chocolate bars on shop shelves last month.
Cadbury’s released a new Bournville dark chocolate which became an instant hit among nut fans.
A spokesperson said: “We’re excited to be introducing two delicious new flavours to our Cadbury Bournville range, Salted Caramel and Chopped Hazelnut.

How to save money on chocolate
We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don’t have to break the bank buying your favourite bar.
Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs…
Go own brand – if you’re not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you’ll save by going for the supermarket’s own brand bars.
Shop around – if you’ve spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it’s cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you’re getting the best deal.
Look out for yellow stickers – supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they’ve been reduced.
They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged.
Buy bigger bars – most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar.
So if you’ve got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
