 HISTORY OF KITKAT   Rowntree's, a confectionery manufacturer located in York, United Kingdom, patented the terms "Kit Cat" and "Kit Kat" in 1935 , and the "Kit Kat" brand was born. The original Kit Kat appeared in the 1920s when Rowntree developed a brand of boxed chocolates called "Kit Cat", despite the names not being used at the time. This trend lasted until the 1930s, when Rowntree's concentrated on its "Black Magic" and "Dairy Box" trademarks.

Hershey's milk chocolate candy bar was first introduced in 1900, followed by other Hershey's bars like Hershey's Milk Chocolate with Almonds in 1908. Milton Snavely Hershey, who aspired to make a new sort of caramel in the late 1880, invented the procedure for making Hershey's chocolate.
