Chocolate will be on the minds of many in the business world today with the food giant, Kraft making a bid for Cadbury. I am sure that other players such as Nestle will be watching closely.
Nestle is one of my favourite chocolate companies because it makes KitKats!
One of the most intriguing points about Nestle is its ability to work with local knowledge in building market share. The case of the kitkats in Japan is a good example here. The Japanese love changes to flavours that match the seasonal changes.
- Billy Smolesworthy's Collection of Boxes Illustrates this point
Who would have thought to have made dozens of flavours of Kit Kats to meet the needs of the Japanese market in this way?
Muscat, Apple, Water Melon, Japanese roasted tea and Ramune KitKats! I wonder whether Kraft will be this versatile in providing Cadbury with a chocolate deal?

@KimonoBox Apart from a slightly dodgy colour, they are actually pretty good aren’t they? http://twitpic.com/gwqjg http://bit.ly/1pK7uV

I sure wish we could get these flavors over here in the states. I’m very envious of Japan. I bet some of those flavors would really sell pretty good here. Maybe a new deal can be worked out for us gaijins.

All this food sure makes me hungry^_^! The only peach flavored products that I’ve ever had were, Peach flavored soda from Krogers,grocerey store chain, peach pie and peach cobbler, I like them w/a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. Also peach jam that my mother-in -law made, yummy . would really like to try all the different products you have there.
