What the original account establishes

These notes distinguish the recorded result from quantities or settings the contributor did not specify. Follow each source link to the original passage.

  • The ingredients were 8 bars of chocolate and 1 pack of wafers, £3.50. All the chocolate was broken into pieces, with some eaten, and melted, the best part by the makers’ account. A bread tin was settled on as the mould for shape and size; a bit of melted chocolate was poured in, wafers laid on top, and this was repeated until the tin was full, the unused chocolate going to the maker’s mum, who broke her diet for it. About an hour in the fridge later the bar was complete, with chocolate extremely thick in places, and was still sitting in the fridge waiting to be eaten when the account was written.

8 bars chocolate 1 pack of wafers

We had a lot of trouble choosing something to use as a mould becuse we wanted it to have to the correct shape but be a good size as well. In the end we settled for a bread tin. So once the chocolate was melted, a bit was poured into the tin, then some wafers layed on top.

The ingredients:

8 bars chocolate

1 pack of wafers

Cost: £3.50

We started by breaking up all of the chocolate into peices, it was very hard to resist eating any. So we did.

Bars of milk chocolate unwrapped and laid out across the worktop before melting

Well next came the melting……the best part in our opinion!

We had a lot of trouble choosing something to use as a mould becuse we wanted it to have to the correct
shape but be a good size as well. In the end we settled for a bread tin. So once the chocolate was melted, a bit was
poured into the tin, then some wafers layed on top.

Wafer sheets laid over the melted chocolate base inside a metal loaf tin

This kept being repeated until all the chocolate was used up. (It wasn’t in the end so we gave it to my mum.)
She broke her diet for that people…our food must be mighty good. Once the tin was full we put it in the fridge and
sat down for a hard earned drink.

Sliding the filled loaf tin into the fridge to set, among eggs and vegetables

About an hour or so later the kit-kat mahoosive was complete!

And it’s still sitting in my fridge waiting to be devoured. It looks like it could take a bit of a bite as the chocolate
is extremely thick in places. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
