The Dark Mint KitKat proved popular among shoppers, boasting a 4.7 star (out of 5) rating on the Tesco website.
Commenting about the chocolate bar, one shopper wrote: "I've been a huge fan of KitKats over the years, and this flavour has to be one of my favourites.
"Strong dark chocolate with a minty kick. Would recommend to anyone and everyone. If only there were more in each pack!!"
Another added: "These dark chocolate with mint kit kats are an explosion of flavour!
"They were eaten very quickly and were delicious.
"I am happily going to buy again as I was so pleased with the burst of flavour! A dream snack!"
It's not all bad news for KitKat lovers, with Nestle releasing three brand-new chocolates last week. (Image: Nestle) While a third person said: "Absolutely gorgeous. Almost like a mint matchmaker/kit-kat combo. Keep in the fridge for maximum pleasure!"
But it's not all bad news for KitKat lovers, with Nestle also launching two brand-new chocolate bars in the UK.
KitKat Chunnky Funky (crispy cocoa wafer wrapped in swirls of milk and white chocolate coating) and KitKat Chunky Duo Salted Caramel began rolling out across UK stores last week.

Jota was that rare breed - a player you admired regardless of who you support
If you don't follow football but you're wondering why the torrent of tributes to Diogo Jota has been so relentless, here are some of the reasons. Yes, the Liverpool footballer was an outstanding, versatile player, arguably the best finisher in the English champions' squad on his day. Yes, he lifted everything there was to win during his five years at Anfield. And yes, he scored crucial goals last season to help them to win the title, including the winner - his last ever goal - in the Merseyside derby against Everton in April. But he was also low maintenance, high in the good energy that attracts kindred spirits and universal respect. He wasn't ever pictured falling out of nightclubs, engaging in unseemly Twitter/X controversies or involved in the pantomime, Baller League-type flare ups we see on Instagram. Jota, the man, was summed up by the pictures that have so dominated the news agenda over the past 24 hours. A family man, a devoted man, taken too soon when the car he was in with his younger brother, Andre Silva, came off the road in north-west Spain on Thursday night. They'd been driving through northern Spain to catch an overnight ferry to the UK for pre-season which had been due to start on Monday. Jota had been advised not to fly following lung surgery, according to reports in Portugal. But the Lamborghini the siblings were in was said to have blown a tyre while overtaking on the A-52 at Cernadilla near Zamora - just ten miles over the border. We continue to await confirmation of the full, tragic circumstances. But what we do know is that Jota was loved. He was cherished within his club and adored within his native Portugal. He was the kind of guy who played computer games in his spare time. A guy who was still paying to play for his local club Gondomar at the age of 16, an age when some talented players in England are already pushing for a place in Premier League teams. He was a footballer whose lack of malice, hostility and animosity during matches came as a refreshing antidote to so many of the tiresome antics we see at the elite level of domestic and European football. He was a father, a son, most recently a husband whose low key life away from the game was summed up by the fact that he was with his brother when the tragedy struck. It doesn't seem real to be talking about him in the past tense. Jota - aged 28. A man barely past the first few chapters of his life. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to suggest he was that rare breed - the kind of player you admired regardless of which team you support. An army of top clubs and their fans had admired Jota and the 17 goals he'd scored to help Wolves into the Premier League as champions before Liverpool gazumped them all to sign him, five years ago. How do the Premier League Champions now focus on football beyond this? How do they park their grief and get on the game again? It is a given that the game will wrap its collective arms around Jota's family. But if we as journalists and fans are rocked by his sudden heartbreaking loss, what about Jota's close friends and colleagues in that dressing room. What about his bosses even? Sadly, Liverpool have a history stretching back decades of dealing with the kind of trauma they simply should not have to bear. And the sadness of it all is in the timing. He was just 28. No age. In May, he'd celebrated winning the Premier League title with Liverpool, he posted pictures all over his socials. In June he helped Portugal to win the Nations League international tournament alongside the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo. And less than two weeks ago he was married. Gorgeous pictures on his social media accounts of him with his childhood sweetheart, Rute Cardoso and his three children. Now, in the blink of an eye, she is a widow. He has been taken away from them. Football comes very much second to the magnitude of the chasm left in the Jota family. It will never be filled. What we do know is that he will never be forgotten.

Love Island twist looms as Maya Jama drops 'huge hint' chaos is on the way
Love Island fans may be in for a huge treat, as host Maya Jama gave away a 'huge clue' that a major twist may be coming to the ITV2 dating show very soon... Love Island fans have predicted a huge twist on the way for the ITV2 dating show, as host Maya Jama gave away a 'huge clue' that something major is coming. Yesterday, fans were left in shock when Alima and Ryan were brutally dumped from the villa. However, their dumping was done via text, as host Maya was nowhere to be seen. It's not unusual for Islanders to be dumped without Maya in the villa, but when she does rock up, Love Island fans know something huge is coming. The 30-year-old host was last seen in the sleepover villa, as she informed the Islanders that their actions had consequences. In scenes last week, Helena chose to recouple with Giorgio, and bring him to the main villa, when Maya later informed her that it meant her current partner, Shea, had been dumped from the villa. As the Islanders returned to the main villa, Maya disappeared from screens, but from her Instagram stories - it looks like she'll be back very soon. On Thursday evening, the host took to her Instagram story to inform fans she was back in Mallorca, with some stunning sunset views. Seeing as she has to get back to London by Sunday to host the After Sun show, it's safe to say she'll be heading into the villa in the coming days, if she hasn't already. Should that be the case, it means the scenes will be playing out on our screens sometime soon - but what could the huge twist be? Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan said: "Maya is going back to the villa soon as she's back in Mallorca from what i saw on her IG." What she'll be entering the villa for is currently unknown, but many predict the iconic Casa Amor will be starting soon... "I smell Casa Amor coming very soon," wrote one fan, while another said: "Casa Amor is soon and there's no strong couples… There will genuinely be 30 people in that villa." Despite Casa Amor being a fan favourite segment in the show, this year, fans don't think it will bring the same level of drama. In previous years, the new villa has been known to break up some of the strongest couples. Fans now predict that due to there not being many solid couples in the villa, more Islanders than ever before will chose to couple up. This series promises more twists and turns than ever, so is Maya heading into the villa for Casa Amor? Or could it be something else? Love Island 2025 airs every night at 9PM on ITV2 and ITVX.

Love Island fans 'rumble real reason' Harrison got back with Toni in huge U-Turn
Harrison and Toni seemed to rekindle things in tonight's episode, but some fans aren't convinced as they suspect they've worked out the 'real reason' they got back together After last night's dramatic Love Island dumping, the Islanders realised their time in the villa was limited, as they expressed their true feelings. In a shock villa U-Turn, Harrison, who was getting to know Helena, told Toni he wanted to give things another go, despite them breaking up just yesterday. Harrison's reunion with Toni came just as Harry expressed he still had feelings for Helena. Early on in the episode, Harrison informed Toni that he wanted to give things another go and wasn't ready to throw away what they had. Helena later spotted them kissing on the Terrace, as Harrison told Helena he wanted to shift his focus back to Toni. It didn't seem like Helena was too bothered, however, as she informed Meg that Harry told her they'd be getting back together. However, fans weren't convinced with Harrison's speech to Toni, as they suspect he only did it because he suspected Helena and Harry would be getting back together sometime soon. Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan said: "Harrison has clocked that Helena will always pick Harry. He is just securing his spot. I hope Toni is doing the same until someone she likes moves in." Another penned: "The sudden SWITCH UP from Harrison is crazy like for the past few days you were saying how you wanted Helena and now all of a sudden it's Toni??" "Harrison has obviously gone back to Toni cuz he knows Helena is obsessed with Harry & knew there's no competition where Harry is concerned cuz he'd 'win,'" said a third. Despite this, the next morning, Harrison and Harry were seen preparing breakfast for Toni and Shakira - but will Harry and Helena find their way back together? Dejon thinks so... Earlier, Dejon and Harry were seen having a heart-to-heart by the fire pit as they reflected on the shocking events. Harry is currently coupled up with Shakira, but it seems neither he or Helena can get rid of their spark. 'The way you are with Helena, that's the H I know, but when you two [with Shakira] are together…" Dejon said, as Harry revealed it wasn't the same. It looks like the feelings are mutual with Helena, as she later told Meg and Dejon that she wanted to go to the Hideaway with Harry, as they later went to speak alone in the Snug. Speaking about his connection with Shakira to Helena, Harry said: 'I do like her, but obviously there's always going to be you at the back of my mind. I know I'm going to have to make a decision at some point, but it isn't today… just give me like a day.'
