The description
This Kitkat is a limited-edition strawberry cheesecake flavor - but not just any old strawberry cheesecake, Baskin Robbins ice-cream strawberry cheesecake flavor!
The good
I always love seeing new and adventurous Kitkat flavors in the store. The bright, summery packaging of the Strawberry Cheesecake flavor caught my eye instantly. Kitkat have had Strawberry Cheesecake flavor before, but as far as I know it wasn't a collaboration with Baskin Robbins. The Baskin Robbins (ice-cream chain) Strawberry Cheesecake flavor offers a different type of flavor. The strawberry note is sweet and noticeable, and the cheesecake flavor adds a mild tang that keeps it from being too sugary.
The not so good
However, I found the flavor a bit too mild, so I only give it four out of fice stars. Although the flavor is mild, the sweetness is undeniable, as is the richness. Making it a whole lot of sweetness despite a mild flavor. Thus, people - like me - expecting a strong cream cheese and strawberry taste might find it lighter than expected. As with many limited KitKats, you never know when this particular flavor is going to disappear and whether it will ever appear again. So, if you do want to try it, it's probably best to try and get your hands on it sooner rather than later.
