Have a break have a ***. If you are not able to fill in the gap then you are one of the only two people in a hundred who can't. the slogan has been used in television advertisements since 1957. kit kat was originally launched in 1937. the new advertisements in 1999 included a baby trying to blow out trick candles and a group of loch ness monsters spotters. the idead was to keep the the customers guessing about the product. this could only work with such a well known brand.
there have been numerous developments over the years. a two finger version was launched in 1951 and it was sold in multipacks in 1963. in 1996 kit kat orange was launched followed by a mint version. these were mainly special promotions designed to stir up interest in the brand name. in 1999 Nestle, the owners, launched kit kat chunky. it was a single bar aimed at teenagers, competing directly with chocolate brands such as wispa.
