Chocolate eating techniques #2

To properly eat a kit-kat, you will first need a couple of pieces of equipment.

Primarily there is, of course, fig 1 - a kit-kat.


Whether you enter the competition to win a mini or not is an optional part of this lesson. Secondly, you will need a cup of steamin' hot java! Well actually any hot drink will work so you can substitute it for tea or whatever you like, but I'm a caffeine addict so I used coffee. This cup was lovingly made for me by my friend Lizz.

That's all the preparation done so let's start the method.

First, unwrap the kit-kat from it's wrapper. Now, if you're anal like me then you're going to want to unwrap the kit-kat without tearing the wrapper at all; the way to do this is to open along the seams instead of tearing.

Next thing to do is carefully remove one of the 4 "fingers" from the "hand". This is the finger we will be eating first, so you can discard the others for now and come back to them later.

Now you've got the little finger isolated from his gang, you can do whatever you want to him.

Being careful not to bite into the wafer at all, nibble off the chocolate from one end of the finger.

Next, repeat this step on the other end of the finger.


Now your finger has been wantonly nibbled at, it's time to put this together with your other piece of equipment, the coffee!

As you can see in the photo below, you need to dip one end of the kit-kat finger into the coffee, and the other end in your mouth. What I'm essentially doing here is using the kit-kat as a straw, sucking the coffee up through it.



Repeat all the above steps for each finger.

The end result is a delightful chocolatey coffee taste, that simply dwarves the comparatively bland taste of a regular kit-kat.

Et voila, you now know how to eat a kit-kat properly.
