Polly Waffle
Polly Waffle is a popular chocolate bar originating from Australia. It was first produced by Hoadley's Chocolates in 1947, and later by Nestlé. The chocolate bar is known for its distinctive cylindrical shape and its combination of marshmallow, wafer, and chocolate.
History[edit | edit source]
The Polly Waffle was first introduced by Hoadley's Chocolates in 1947. The company was later acquired by Rowntree's, a British confectionery company, which was subsequently taken over by Nestlé in 1988. Under Nestlé's ownership, the Polly Waffle continued to be a popular snack in Australia until its discontinuation in 2009. However, in 2019, it was announced that the Polly Waffle would be making a comeback, thanks to the efforts of Australian confectionery company Robert Menz.
Description[edit | edit source]
The Polly Waffle is a cylindrical chocolate bar, approximately 10 centimeters in length and 2 centimeters in diameter. It consists of a tube of wafer filled with marshmallow and coated in milk chocolate. The combination of textures - the crunch of the wafer, the softness of the marshmallow, and the creaminess of the chocolate - is a defining characteristic of the Polly Waffle.
Cultural Impact[edit | edit source]
The Polly Waffle has had a significant cultural impact in Australia. It has been featured in various forms of media, including television commercials and popular songs. The term "Polly Waffle" has also been used in Australian slang, often in a political context.
