Walnut Whip

Walnut Whip

A Walnut Whip is a whirl-shaped cone of chocolate with a whipped vanilla fondant filling, topped with a half-walnut.

There have been a number of flavours of walnut whip over the years, including coffee flavour, but currently only vanilla is widely available. The original Walnut Whip used to have a half-walnut placed inside the cone on the thick chocolate base as well as on top.

Launched in 1910 by Duncan's of Edinburgh, Walnut Whip is Nestlé Rowntree's oldest current brand. Over one million walnuts, most of them imported from China and India, are used every week in the manufacture of Walnut Whips at Halifax, West Yorkshire. A Walnut Whip is eaten almost every two seconds in the UK. [http://www.nestle.co.uk/OurBrands/AboutOurBrands/ConfectioneryAndCakes/Other+Chocolate+Bars.htm]

Ken Livingstone famously said the London Olympics will cost Londoners the price of one walnut whip each (38p).
