Kit Kat V

Warum

The wafer contains milk and the coating is milk chocolate. Nestlé sells Kit Kat V, a rice-milk version certified vegan, in a number of European markets — it is a distinct product with its own pack.

Worauf man auf dem Etikett achten sollte

  • The ingredient list on your own pack — Kit Kat recipes differ by country and change over time
  • Milk, whey, casein, lactose, egg, honey, gelatin, carmine (E120) and shellac (E904) in the list
  • "May contain milk" is an allergen cross-contamination note, not an ingredient — most vegans still buy it

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Is Kit Kat certified vegan?

Certification is separate from the recipe. Many products with no animal ingredients carry no vegan mark because the maker will not rule out shared production lines. Check the pack for a registered vegan trademark, and treat the ingredient list as the primary evidence.

Does the answer change between countries?

Often, yes. The same brand name can use different fats, emulsifiers, colours or whey depending on the plant that made it, so always read the local label rather than an answer written for another market.
