What it is
Tiny white vanilla flavoured shapes moulded as fish and chips, sold mixed together. Pure novelty, and it works every time.
Taste
Where it comes from
Novelty moulded chocolate shapes were a staple of the British penny counter through the twentieth century, and the fish and chips version is a piece of national self parody that has outlived most of its competitors. It sits alongside chocolate tools, chocolate mice and chocolate frogs in the same tradition.
What it's made of
A compound coating of sugar, vegetable fat, whey powder and wheat flour deposited into small moulds and cooled.
