Nestlé in Japan has taken KitKat to the next level in the last two decades, with innovative flavour combinations and inspiring special editions. In 2004, the ‘ KitKat Uji Matcha’ was released. With the introduction of a new technology to mix matcha powder into chocolate, the product became a huge hit.

It is typically served with whipped cream.The Sachertorte has become an iconic symbol of Viennese cuisine and is often enjoyed as a dessert or as a special treat. It is also a popular souvenir for tourists visiting Vienna, as the original recipe is closely guarded by the Sacher Hotel, where it was first created.
