TODAY IS CHOCOLATE WAFER DAY

They’re light and crispy, sweet and thin, and they’re basically the best thing ever to come out of gastronomy! They’ve been used in every delicious culinary application you can imagine, including being crumbled over desserts, made into candy bars (Kit Kat anyone?) and used for ice cream sandwiches. This celebration isn’t just about any old wafer (as if such a thing exists), this holiday is Chocolate Wafer Day, and it’s about the wafer that took something special, and made it perfect.
