AN ‘AERY’ MINTY KITKAT
UNCLE TOBY’S LAUNCHES OAT MILK RANGE
Two iconic Australian chocolate brands – KitKat and Aero – have collaborated to create the KitKat Chunky Aero Mint.
The minty bar has three layers of crispy KitKat wafer topped with Aero’s peppermint, lightly aerated chocolate, and finished in a coating of milk chocolate.
Nestlé head of marketing confectionery, Joyce Tan, said: “The KitKat team are always looking for ways to create the most exciting break. So, we wanted to launch a new creation which would excite fans with a flavour and texture combination that would leave them longing for more.
“There’s so much love for both of these chocolate bars, we’re excited for them to become one and take the KitKat choc mint experience to the next level,” said Tan.
KitKat Chunky Aero Mint is available nationally for RRP $2.00.

From your breakfast bowl to your alternative milk, Uncle Tobys has introduced a range of vegan oat milks – Uncle Tobys Oat Milk, Barista-Style Oat Milk and Oat & Almond Milk. They are made from 100 per cent Australian oats and contain one third of recommended daily calcium and vitamins D, B12 and B2 intake.
Nestlé business manager Anna Stewart said as preferences and lifestyles continue to change, the company used its long-term experience to develop the range.
“We’ve been producing Australia’s favourite oats for more than 100 years, so being able to take our team’s expertise and create this brand-new range of oat milks is exciting. We’re committed to offering Australians the highest quality dairy alternatives to suit every taste and preference,” Stewart said.
Uncle Tobys Oat Milk is an all-rounder with a creamy taste. The Barista-Style Oat Milk has been made to deliver a café quality experience, while the Oat & Almond Milk has a nuttier flavour.
Uncle Tobys Oat Milks range is now available in the long-life milk section of Coles and independent supermarkets.
