Outrage has now greeted the launch of a new confection: the Whip, which comes without the crowning walnut in name or in the chocolate flesh. Everything is ruined.”Hannah Muirhead tweeted:Hannah Muirhead (@HCIM90) Never really been a walnut girl but i feel removing them from the walnut whip truly is the beginning of the end for society as we know itWalnut Whips were first introduced in 1910, originally made by Duncan’s of Edinburgh. True believers have already pointed out that they had long since lost the hidden second walnut in the base, shrunk considerably in size and developed smoother sides. A Nestlé brand manager, Alison Clinton, insisted the shorn treat – promptly nicknamed the Walnot Whip – had been introduced in the interest of consumer choice. Nestlé promises the walnut-topped version will still be available in single packs, and in six-packs at Christmas.
