[1][2] Launched in 1910 by Duncan's of Edinburgh,[3] Walnut Whip is Nestlé Rowntree's oldest current brand.

[citation needed] Nestlé claim that almost one Walnut Whip is eaten every two seconds in the UK.

The original whips were hand made by extruding chocolate from a piping bag onto a rubber mould, each containing 12 'formers'.

An attempt was made to recreate the original surface appearance but with limited success, and it now has no function other than decoration.

Nestlé is expanding the range of its whirl-shaped cone, Walnut Whip and launching new variants of Nestlé Whip: "Delicate Vanilla", "Delicious Caramel" and "Delightful Mint" to offer more choice with and without the walnut.
