KitKat Lemon Drizzle #mybreak

There is a new KitKat on the block and I had no idea. It was only on a whim outing that I spied the new KitKat Lemon Drizzle and it transpires that it will only be available in Asda.

Nonetheless what better way to kick start things than with Hotel Chocolat Treacle Tart chocolates.
