So it has come to my attention that there are now such things as proper Wonka bars and they have -holds breath, jumps up and down - made the WHIPPLE SCRUMPTIOUS FUDGEMALLOW DELIGHT bar!!
Now, I am in two minds about this. 
From the very first time I read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I imagined the WSFD to be a light, airy chocolatey marshmallow thing with - for some reason known only to my subconscious - a touch of strawberry.
i just KNOW that the WSFD that is in the shops right now will NOT be anything like what I have imagined all these years. The chocolate will be nestle, the fudgemallow will probably be some sort of nougat and there won’t be a hint of strawberry in the whole thing. (As I said I have no idea why strawberry, it’s just the scent that popped into my head when I first read the book.)
Even the wonka bar (pictured right) isn’t what I imagined. Graham Crackers?? It sounds like a cheap Club Milk. When I was growing up I always imagined that Wonka chocolate would be the best chocolate in the world. Better than Cadbury’s. But then nestle brought out the Wonka range of chocolate bars and well, we all know how bad their chocolate is. I can’t imagine what the Nutty Crunch Surprise is like. I may have to re-think my initial delight at hearing of the existence of the WFSD. Some things are best left to the imagination.
