“One of our most popular products around the world, Happy Hippo delivers the signature Kinder taste and quality ingredients in delicious, crispy biscuit form. It’s a scrumptious combination and one we’re sure will make a whole lot of Kiwi families truly happy as they discover these playful tasty treats.”

These individually wrapped bickies are hugely popular around the world, especially in Germany and the UK where millions of shoppers enjoy adding the hippos to their baskets.

From July, Kinder Happy Hippo will be available in Cocoa and Hazelnut variants, RRP $ 1.00 for a single pack, $ 4.50 for a 5 pack multipack, at leading supermarkets and convenience stores nationwide.
