Kvikk Lunsj

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kvikk Lunsj (Norwegian for "Quick Lunch") is a confection created by the Norwegian chocolate brand Freia in 1937. It consists of a thick bar, composed of wafer covered with milk chocolate, and divided into four fingers. Each finger can be snapped from the bar one at a time. The Kvikk Lunsj XXL introduced in 1999, has one large finger, approximately 2.5 cm wide. The confection is almost identical to Kit Kat, in shape and taste.

Kvikk Lunsj is produced by Kraft Foods Nordic, and is sold in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.
