We run same-day UK dispatch on every order placed before 2pm Monday to Friday. Common questions are answered in the detailed Q and A tab below. ## Description Nescafe Kit Kat Latte is a chocolate-flavoured instant milk coffee sold under the KitKat name, seven single-serve sachets to the box at 21g each. The licence is less of a stretch than it looks. KitKat and Nescafe are both Nestle brands in the UK, so putting the wafer bar's flavour on the coffee brand's sachet is an in-house decision rather than a deal struck between rivals, and it explains why the pairing appears here rather than on somebody else's shelf. What lands in the mug is a sweetened, milky, chocolate-led drink with coffee underneath it. That ordering matters, because it decides who the box is for. If you want a coffee that happens to taste faintly of chocolate, this is the wrong sachet and a plain latte or a jar of instant will serve you better. If you want the four o'clock drink that stands in for a biscuit, arrives in thirty seconds, and needs no milk in the fridge, this is precisely the sachet that was designed for the job. The Taste Profile Chocolate: ●●●●○ (4/5) The lead note and the reason the box exists. Milk chocolate in character rather than dark cocoa bitterness. Sweetness: ●●●●○ (4/5) Set inside the sachet, which means you can add to it but cannot take it away. Worth knowing before you buy seven of them. Coffee: ●●○○○ (2/5) Present, and enough to stop the drink reading as hot chocolate, but it sits behind the chocolate rather than in front of it. Milkiness: ●●●●○ (4/5) Soft, rounded and foamed if you pour it properly, which is the part most people get wrong. Teas.co.uk Curator Rating 4.4 / 5 - Our expert verdict from the curators at Teas.co.uk The Story Behind Nescafe Nescafe is the instant coffee brand that made the category ordinary, and for most of its life the range has been about the jar. The sachet mixes are a later and quite different proposition: single-serve, milk included, sweetened, and aimed at the break rather than the breakfast. Borrowing a confectionery name for one of them is the logical end of that thinking, because the drink is competing with a chocolate bar as much as with a cup of coffee. Packaging: Follow the current UK pack and local-authority guidance; components can require different disposal routes. What You Are Actually Buying Count: seven sachets at 21g each, one mug apiece, so seven drinks from the box and 147g of powder in total. Sweetened: the sugar is in the sachet. This is a finished recipe, not a base you season, and that is the single biggest difference between this and an unsweetened cappuccino sachet. Milk included: the milk component is in the powder, which is why the box needs no fridge and travels flat. It is also why the drink is not suitable for a dairy-free or vegan diet. Water only: made up with hot water. Milk is optional and changes it considerably, as below. What it is not: not a KitKat in liquid form, not a barista mocha, and not a children's drink despite the branding. It is a caffeinated coffee drink wearing a confectionery label, and that distinction is worth making out loud in a household with children in it. How Does Nescafe Kit Kat Latte Sachets, 7 Sachets 147g Compare to: Costa Millionaires Mocha, 6 Sachets 138g: the closest rival in the sweet-mocha sachet aisle, and a richer, more layered drink built on caramel and biscuit rather than milk chocolate. Pick the Costa if you want the drink to taste designed; pick this one if you want it to taste familiar. Starbucks White Mocha, 5 Sachets 120g: white chocolate instead of milk chocolate, which moves the drink sweeter and creamier still and drops the coffee even further back. A dessert in a mug rather than an afternoon drink. Costa Smooth Medium Roast Coffee, 100g: the sober alternative. A jar of black instant lets you decide every variable, but you supply the milk, keep it cold and add the sweetness yourself. The sachet exists for the places and moods where you will not do any of that. Ideal Serving Conditions Chocolate milk drinks made from powder go wrong in two predictable ways, and both are avoidable. The first is water straight off a rolling boil, which scalds powdered milk and gives the cup a faintly cooked, tinny edge that no amount of stirring fixes. The second is over-stirring, which flattens the foam that the pour has just built. Neither problem costs anything to solve. The Standard Mug Measure: one sachet to 180 to 200ml. Any more water and the chocolate thins into something watery and the foam gives up. Water: let the kettle stand for about a minute after it clicks off, so you are pouring at roughly 90 degrees Celsius rather than 100. Pour: powder into a dry mug first, then the water in from a height and reasonably fast. The drop is what makes the head. Stir once, briefly: chocolate powder needs slightly more help dissolving than a plain latte does, so one proper stir from the bottom, then leave it alone. Making It Richer or Lighter Half milk: make it with 100ml hot water and 100ml hot milk and it becomes noticeably closer to a proper mocha. This is the single best change you can make to the box. Cutting the sweetness: you cannot remove sugar that is already in the sachet, but you can dilute its effect. A teaspoon of plain cocoa in the dry mug adds bitterness and depth and pulls the drink back towards coffee. Iced: make it on 80ml of hot water first so the powder dissolves properly, then top with cold milk and ice. Cold water alone will leave lumps, because this is a hot-mix sachet rather than a dual hot-and-cold one. Getting It Right in the Cup Water temperature: about 90 degrees Celsius, not straight off the boil. Measure: one 21g sachet per 180 to 200ml mug. Use a mug, not a large cup. Method: dry mug, powder first, water from a height, one stir from the bottom. Storage: keep the sachets sealed and dry in their box. A split sachet in a damp cupboard sets into a solid lump and is not worth rescuing. Travelling: the real practical argument for the format. No jar, no milk, no fridge, and seven drinks that pack flat. Best with: a mid-afternoon break, a long car journey, a hotel kettle, or any moment when the alternative was going to be a biscuit. Safety And Purity Dairy note: this is a milk drink. The milk component is part of the sachet, so the box is not suitable for a dairy-free or vegan diet and is not a drink to hand to anyone with a milk allergy. The exact declaration is printed on the current UK pack. Ingredients and dietary suitability: Per the published ingredient list for this barcode it contains milk. Check the current UK pack before purchase; formulations and allergen advice can change. Caffeine note: this is a caffeinated coffee drink. We place it at the low end of the scale because a single sachet carries a modest coffee dose inside a large milky mug, and that placement is our own editorial judgement rather than a measurement. Child safety: the branding reads as confectionery and the drink is caffeinated. It is not a children's drink. Keep out of reach. ## Product Questions Does it actually taste of KitKat?It tastes of milk chocolate in a milky coffee, which is the closest a powder can sensibly get. There is no wafer and no bar in the sachet, and it does not pretend otherwise. What the name buys you is a milk chocolate direction rather than a dark, cocoa-bitter one, and that is a real difference from most mocha sachets. Is it a coffee or a hot chocolate?It sits between the two and leans towards the chocolate side. There is enough instant coffee in the sachet to stop it reading as plain hot chocolate, but the chocolate is in front and the coffee is behind. If you want the coffee forward, a plain latte sachet or a jar of instant is the better buy. Can I make it less sweet?Not directly, because the sugar is inside the sachet before you open it. You can only work around it: a teaspoon of plain cocoa powder in the dry mug adds bitterness and depth, and half a teaspoon of plain instant coffee pushes the coffee back in front. Neither removes sugar, but both rebalance the cup. Do I need to add milk?No. The milk component is already in the powder, which is why the box travels and needs no fridge. Adding hot milk in place of some of the water is optional and makes it noticeably richer, closer to a proper mocha, but it is an upgrade rather than a requirement. What water temperature should I use?Around 90 degrees Celsius, which means letting the kettle stand for about a minute after it clicks off. Water at a rolling boil scalds powdered milk and leaves a faintly cooked, tinny edge on the cup. This is the single most common reason a powdered milk drink tastes worse at home than it should. Can I make it iced?Yes, but not straight into cold water. This is a hot-mix sachet, so dissolve the powder in about 80ml of hot water first, stir it smooth, then top up with cold milk and ice. Poured onto cold water alone it will leave lumps. Kenco sell a dual iced and hot sachet if you want the cold version without the extra step. How much caffeine is in a sachet?We place it at the low end of the scale, because a single sachet carries a modest coffee dose spread through a large milky mug. If an exact figure matters to you, the current UK pack is the only thing that should be trusted for it. How many drinks are in the box?Seven, one per sachet, at 21g each. That is 147g of powder in the box. There is no measuring and no partial sachet: you open one, you make one mug, and the rest stay sealed until you want them. How much water per sachet?180 to 200ml, so an ordinary mug rather than a large cup. Stretch it past that and the chocolate thins out and the foam collapses. If your mug is a big one, use the sachet with less water and top up with hot milk rather than more water. How should I store the box?Sealed, dry and at room temperature, in the box it came in. Powdered milk drinks are hygroscopic: a split sachet in a damp cupboard sets into a solid lump that will not dissolve properly, and is not worth trying to rescue. Keep it away from the kettle steam. Is it worth taking away from home?That is the strongest practical case for it. No jar, no milk, no fridge, and seven flat sachets that pack into the side of a bag. A hotel room, a caravan, a train journey or a desk drawer all have hot water available and nothing else the drink needs. ## Ingredients & Nutrition Ingredients and allergens.

Nescafe Kit Kat Latte Sachets, 7 Sachets 147g is made by Nescafe, the instant coffee brand that turned the category into an everyday one. KitKat and Nescafe are both Nestle brands in the UK, so the licence is an in-house arrangement rather than a deal between competing companies, which is why this particular pairing appears at all. The sachet mixes sit apart from the jars in intent: single-serve, milk included, sweetened, and aimed squarely at the afternoon break rather than at breakfast. What is being sold here is a finished recipe, not a base you build on, and judging it against a jar of black instant misses what it was designed to do.What's in Nescafe Kit Kat Latte Sachets, 7 Sachets 147g, and what isn't: In: a chocolate-flavoured instant coffee mix with a milk component and added sugar, in a single-serve sachet made up with hot water. Sweetened in the sachet: this is not a base you season. The sweetness is decided before you open it, and that is the defining difference between this and an unsweetened cappuccino sachet. Not dairy-free: the milk component is intrinsic to the drink. Not suitable for a vegan or dairy-free diet, and not a drink for anyone with a milk allergy. No wafer and no chocolate bar: the KitKat name describes the flavour direction, not an inclusion in the sachet. Packaging: follow the current UK pack and your local-authority guidance; the outer carton and the sachet film usually take different disposal routes. ## Flavour Science The flavour of Nescafe Kit Kat Latte Sachets, 7 Sachets 147g is built in three layers, and reading them in order explains exactly why the mug tastes the way it does from the first lift of steam to the last swallow.The outer layer is aroma, and in a chocolate milk sachet the aroma arrives before the drink is even made. Cocoa aromatics are volatile and light, so they lift off the powder the moment hot water hits it and reach the nose well before the liquid reaches the tongue. That is why the cup smells more strongly of chocolate than it tastes of it, and why a mug left to stand for ten minutes smells flat even though nothing about the liquid has changed. The foam built by the pour holds that aroma right under your nose while you drink, which is the practical reason foam is worth protecting rather than stirring away.The flavour spike arrives mid palate and is carried by sugar and milk solids together. Sugar occupies the same part of the palate that roast character would otherwise use, so in a sweetened sachet the coffee is not absent, it is masked: the sweetness gets to the receptors first and the roast notes read quieter behind it. Milk solids compound the effect, because fat coats the tongue and rounds off the sharper edges that would let coffee assert itself. This is the densest stretch of the cup and the part that decides whether you read the drink as a coffee or as a chocolate drink. Here it reads as a chocolate drink, deliberately.The base structure is the finish, and in a sweetened milk drink the finish is where the compromise shows. Sugar and milk fat both linger, so the cup does not reset the palate the way a black coffee does; it leaves a soft, slightly coating sweetness behind. That lingering is exactly why this works as a stand-in for a biscuit and exactly why it is harder to drink two of in a row than an unsweetened cappuccino would be. A good sweetened sachet finishes clean enough not to cloy; a poor one turns sticky by the last mouthful.Getting it right in the cup. Use one 21g sachet per 180 to 200ml and let the kettle stand for about a minute after it clicks, so the water lands at roughly 90 degrees Celsius rather than 100. Powdered milk scalds at a rolling boil and picks up a faintly cooked, tinny note that no amount of stirring will lift back out. Put the powder into a dry mug first, then pour the water in from a height and reasonably fast, because the drop is what builds the head. Chocolate powder needs slightly more help dissolving than a plain latte mix does, so give it one proper stir from the bottom and then stop; every extra stir is foam you have knocked flat. If you want it richer, replace half the water with hot milk, which is the single best change you can make to the box.How water and temperature change it. The same sachet gives a measurably different mug depending on how you treat the water. Hotter water dissolves the sugar and cocoa faster but pushes the milk solids towards that cooked edge, so the cup reads sweeter and slightly flatter; water a touch cooler keeps the chocolate aromatics brighter and the milk cleaner, at the cost of needing an extra stir to dissolve properly. More water than 200ml thins the chocolate and collapses the foam, which is the most common way this drink disappoints, and the fix is to use less water and top up with hot milk rather than stretching the sachet. Cold water on its own will not dissolve a hot-mix sachet cleanly, so an iced version has to start with a small amount of hot water before the milk and ice go in. None of this is a fault in the mix, it is a powdered milk drink responding to the cup you build around it, and once you know which way you like it the result repeats every time. ## Recipe Ideas Nescafe Kit Kat Latte Sachets, 7 Sachets 147g is a finished recipe rather than a base, so the useful builds are the ones that change its balance rather than its flavour. Six below cover the standard mug, a richer version made on milk, an iced one, a grown-up version with the coffee put back, an affogato and a batch for a crowd. Serving ideas, born here first The Standard Mug How to make The Standard Mug with Nescafe Kit Kat Latte. 2 min 1 mug Easy You'll need 1 sachet Nescafe Kit Kat Latte 180ml water at about 90 degrees Celsius Method Boil the kettle and let it stand for a minute, so you are not pouring at a rolling boil onto milk powder. Empty the sachet into a dry mug. A wet mug makes the powder clump before the water arrives. Pour the water in from a height and fairly fast; the drop is what builds the foam. Stir once from the bottom to lift the cocoa off the base, then leave it alone. What you'll end up with: A sweet milk chocolate coffee with a head on it. If it looks flat and tastes thin, you either used too much water or stirred it more than once. Made on Hot Milk How to make Made on Hot Milk with Nescafe Kit Kat Latte. 4 min 1 mug Easy You'll need 1 sachet Nescafe Kit Kat Latte 60ml hot water 140ml hot milk, dairy or oat Method Dissolve the sachet in 60ml of hot water first, stirring to a smooth paste with no dry powder left. Heat 140ml of milk until steaming but not boiling. Pour the milk in from a height to build a head on top. Finish with a dusting of cocoa if you have it. What you'll end up with: The single best version of this sachet. Real milk gives it the weight the powder alone cannot, and it stops tasting like a convenience drink. Iced Chocolate Latte How to make Iced Chocolate Latte with Nescafe Kit Kat Latte. 5 min 1 glass Easy You'll need 1 sachet Nescafe Kit Kat Latte 80ml hot water 120ml cold milk A glass of ice Method Dissolve the sachet in 80ml of hot water and stir until completely smooth. This step is not optional: cold water alone leaves lumps. Cool the mix for two minutes so it does not melt all the ice on contact. Pour over a glass of ice, then top with cold milk. Stir briefly and drink straight away, before the ice dilutes it. What you'll end up with: A cold chocolate coffee that works because the powder was dissolved hot first. Skip that step and you will be chewing it. The Grown-Up Version How to make The Grown-Up Version with Nescafe Kit Kat Latte. 3 min 1 mug Easy You'll need 1 sachet Nescafe Kit Kat Latte Half a teaspoon plain instant coffee A teaspoon of plain cocoa powder 180ml water at about 90 degrees Celsius Method Combine the sachet, the instant coffee and the cocoa in a dry mug and mix the dry powders together first. Pour the water in from a height and stir once from the bottom. Taste before you add anything else. The cocoa has added bitterness and the coffee has moved forward. What you'll end up with: The same sweetness, but rebalanced. You cannot take sugar out of a sachet, so the honest workaround is to put bitterness back in beside it. Chocolate Latte Affogato How to make Chocolate Latte Affogato with Nescafe Kit Kat Latte. 3 min 1 bowl Easy You'll need 1 sachet Nescafe Kit Kat Latte 70ml hot water 2 scoops vanilla ice cream Method Mix the sachet with only 70ml of hot water to make a thick, concentrated chocolate coffee. Scoop the ice cream into a cold bowl or glass. Pour the hot mix straight over the top and serve immediately. What you'll end up with: A pudding made from a coffee sachet. The sweetness that makes it hard to drink twice in a row is exactly what makes it work poured over ice cream. A Jug for the Table How to make A Jug for the Table with Nescafe Kit Kat Latte. 8 min 4 mugs Easy You'll need 4 sachets Nescafe Kit Kat Latte 250ml hot water 500ml hot milk Method Empty four sachets into a warmed jug and add 250ml of hot water. Whisk to a completely smooth paste before any milk goes near it. Add 500ml of hot milk and whisk again to raise a little foam. Pour at the table into four mugs. What you'll end up with: Four mugs at once without four separate pours, which is the only sensible way to serve sachets to more than two people. --- _Content available under teas.co.uk citation contract.
