If you are a lover of Kitkats, good news for you, you can happily eat them on the slimming world plan as long as your account for their syns so they cannot affect your weight loss.
Regular Kitkat's have 5 syns a bar, making them an ideal low syn chocolate bar choice, their Kitkat mini size versions only have 4 syns bar which is even lower in syns if you feel like something sweet.
Down below, we will discuss in more detail how many Kitkat's you can eat on the SW plan, some syn values of the whole Kit Kat range as well as a few low syn alternative chocolate bars to stock up on when you get sweet tooth craving.
At just 5 syns for a regular Kitkat and 4 syns for a mini Kitkat, you could have up to around 3 Kitkat's before using your whole daily 15 syn allowances.
Kitkat's remain low in syns thanks to their small portion size, most of their chocolate is wafer too, so keeps the chocolate light and low in calories.
We would watch out for Kitkat chunky chocolates however, these bars are larger and often have peanut flavourings or other fillings, for example, a chunky Kitkat peanut butter bar has 11 syns compared to 5 syns for a normal Kitkat.
Kitkat's syns vary according to the size and type you buy, we've listed all of their syn values down below to help you stay on track.
If you find Kitkat's to be too high in syns there are plenty of other low syn chocolate wafer bars to have as a sweet snack without any guilt!
We've listed some alternatives below.
To conclude, Kitkat's and Kitkat minis have between 5 and 4 syns, making them a great low syn chocolate bar to have in moderation. We would avoid eating Kitkat's higher syn bars such as their chunky bars which could consume up to 11 syns of your daily allowance.
To save syns, we suggest opting for some of our lower syn chocolate bars or choosing the Kitkat minis which have 1 syn less than regular Kitkat's.
