German Wafers With Dark Chocolate - Check Out What They Call This!

Afrika?? Dark CHOCOLATE-covered wafers are called Afrika by this German company (Afrika is the German language equivalent to Africa in English). Funny - I knew I had to pick it up when I saw it in the store.

This is the same country that calls [or called (in the past tense) as someone told them it may offend people] the chocolate-covered marshmallows with wafer bottoms either Neger Küsse (aka Negro Kisses) or Mohrenkopf (Moor's Head). I had a lot of laughs back in the 1990s with those names. I had a Mohrenkopf box that I brought home in 1995, but it was mistakenly thrown away. I have a picture of the outdoor German market selling Neger Küsse candies from I believe 2003. I will have to dig that picture up some time.

I am going to start my own vanilla cookie and candy lines and call them "Europe" or "Europa" and the cookies or candies themselves "Caucasians" (or "Caucasian Heads" or "Caucasian Kisses")!! Better yet, maybe I'll call them "Honkeys"!!
