The tagline of the popular chocolate snack KitKat says: “Have a break, Have a KitKat”.

However, it seems that in recent weeks, fans of the childhood-favourite snack are not ‘having a break’. Many of them expressed their frustrations online after finding out that their favourite chocolate bars do not have wafers in them.

Several fans have taken to KitKat’s official account on Twitter to complain about their waferless chocolate bars. And it’s not just with their classic chocolate bars, even their chunky and flavoured ranges don’t have wafers in them.

“I just bit into my [KitKat bar] and it’s nothing but chocolate inside,” wrote one user on Twitter. “What a disappointment.”

A second user added: “I'm actually quite upset because it doesn't taste nice without the wafer.” A third person even pointed out that the brand’s special wafer is the reason she bought a KitKat bar.

An online representative has already responded to the claims, encouraging customers to send them their details so they can provide appropriate help.

Are you a fan of Kitkat too? And have you had any similar experiences recently?

Instead of munching on KitKat “waferless” bars, why not make your own healthy chocolate snack instead?

Like this delicious low-calorie, gluten-free apricot, almond and chocolate fudge that is packed with the goodness of dried fruit, fresh dates, almond butter and raw cacao.

All you need are:

• 215g (1 ¼ cups) whole dried apricots
• 250g fresh dates, pitted, chopped
• 145g (½ cup) almond spread
• 30g (¼ cup) raw cacao powder
• 60ml (¼ cup) melted coconut oil
• Pinch of sea salt
• 1 tbsp raw cacao nibs

Here’s how to make this chewy chocolate fudge:

Grease the base and sides of an 11 x 21cm (base measurement) loaf pan and line with baking paper, allowing the edges to overhang.

Place 1 cup of the apricots in a heatproof bowl and add boiling water. Stand for 5 minutes then drain and pat dry. Finely chop remaining apricots and set them aside.

Process the dates and soaked apricots in a food processor, scraping down sides occasionally, until smooth. Then add the almond spread, cacao powder, coconut oil and salt. Process all of the ingredients until smooth then press into the prepared pan and smooth the surface.

Sprinkle the fudge with the cacao nibs and reserved chopped apricot. Using your hands, gently press into the fudge.

Place in the fridge for 4 hours or until firm. Cut into pieces, serve, and enjoy!

Oh wow - again with the up and comers wanting to make their mark on the world by changing something that was perfect to begin with - think Vegemite etc. Why can't they just leave things alone?
