KitKat ®’s First Ever Ketupat-Stamped Chocolate Launched in Conjunction with “Rezeki Dikongsi Bersama” Raya Campaign

Do you also have sweet tooth like I do? Whenever my sweet tooth strikes, I take a break with KitKat ^®! Nestlé’s KitKat ^® celebrates Ramadan and the upcoming Hari Raya by showcasing the spirit of sharing and togetherness of Malaysians with the “Rezeki Dikongsi Bersama” campaign. A KitKat ^® Raya animated music video, exciting limited-edition product offerings, and various unique collaborations are all part of the campaign.

“KitKat ^® “Rezeki Dikongsi Bersama” Raya campaign aims to connect people via
tasty, memorable KitKat ^® moments together. The month of Ramadan and the upcoming Hari Raya celebration are equally meaningful times of the year for many Malaysians, regardless of race or background. It is a fantastic time to gather with families, neighbours and friends to cele-break all the joy and festivities of the season. Just like our catchphrase – “Have a Break, Have a KitKat ^®”, it’s all about enjoying a break, having a wonderful time together and sharing ‘rezeki’ all around”

The Limited-edition Raya KitKat ^® Ketupat
This year, KitKat ® is introducing the limited-edition Raya KitKat ^® Ketupat, which provides consumers with the ideal balance of creamy milk chocolate and crispy wafer encased in a brand-new “Ketupat” motif stamped onto the KitKat ^® 4-Fingers chocolate bars. A traditional Ramadan and Hari Raya treat, ketupat is made of compressed cooked rice and wrapped in woven coconut leaves. The intricate Ketupat weaving pattern also symbolises Silaturrahim, a form of good relationships and friendship that is honoured in Islamic traditions as well as Malaysian culture, representing the “Rezeki Dikongsi Bersama” campaign’s spirit. On the basis of this idea, the KitKat ^® Ketupat seeks to inspire Malaysians to share their “rezeki” with everyone by bringing love, joy, and togetherness into a many homes during the Raya celebrations.

The four distinctive collectible designs of the Raya limited-edition KitKat ^® Ketupat, each of which highlights significant Raya traditions, make it the ideal Raya gift to share and “cele-break” with friends and family. There are two different pack sizes for the KitKat ^® Ketupat: the KitKat ^® Ketupat 4-Fingers Multipack of 4 and the KitKat ^® Ketupat 4-Fingers Multipack of 2.

In addition, KitKat ^® and Mimpikita have teamed up to release the limited-edition KitKat^® x Mimpikita Raya Edition pack, which comes with two packs of KitKat ^® Mini 9g Sharebags and a specially created Luminarc drinking glass from Mimpikita. These chic glass mugs are offered in three different, one-of-a-kind designs.

Support from Local Celebrities
Two local celebrities, MK K-Clique and Nabila Razali, performed the KitKat ^® “Rezeki Dikongsi Bersama” theme song that is featured in KitKat ^®‘s most recent Raya animated music video at the KitKat ^® “Rezeki Dikongsi Bersama” Raya campaign launch event. The animated music video for the Raya holiday from KitKat ^® honours all the special moments that bring people together during the festive season while embodying the values of the Ramadan and Raya seasons. The characters on the KitKat ® Ketupat packaging, which represent diversity, community, and the joy of sharing “rezeki,” served as the inspiration for the animated music video.

I am honoured to be back again and be part of the KitKat ^® “Rezeki Dikongsi Bersama” campaign together with Nabila Razali this year. We hope this song will liven up the spirit of Ramadan and Hari Raya for everyone this year.
