Hadleigh Maid Milk Chocolate Coffee Truffle Walnut Whirls, 92 g

Product Information

When the whips switched to being hollow moulded instead, in the late 1970s, the original surface was recreated, although it now had no function other than decoration.

Place the egg whites and cream of tartar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk and whisk to firm peaks. I know that Nestle don't make them (ie the proper Walnut Whip) any more, they only do Vanilla flavour, but just wondered if anyone had come across another brand that makes them?Originally the chocolate whips were hand made by workers who extruded chocolate from a piping bag onto a board, which generated the original ridged surface.

rights and specific trade dress owned by Nestlé; rights elsewhere owned by Associated British Foods. The texture of the outside surface is a skeumorph: the original whips were moulded as a spiral cone of extruded chocolate; as the extrusion was ridged and twisted during moulding, this generated the knitted surface as a result of the process.

Temper the milk chocolate and use a clean, grease-free brush or teaspoon to coat and line each of the fluted cups in the mould with the chocolate.
