Real Life WIlly Wonka Chocolate Factory to Open in Universal Studios Orlando

"Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" aficionados are set to experience the real-life chocolate factory by the end of this year. Universal Studio Orlando proudly announced that in their pursuit to take entertainment to the next level they will open the "Toothsome Chocolate Factory" and restaurant in Universal City Walk by the end of this year.

According to Universal "The Toothsome Chocolate Factory will transport you into a 19th century-inspired Steampunk chocolate factory. You'll indulge your appetite amidst towering smoke stacks, funky gadgetry, and staff wearing unique Steampunk fashion."

But it wouldn't be the real-life chocolate factory without delectable sweets. "The food will take your imagination to new heights with a menu that features unique twists on classic steak, seafood and pasta entrees, gourmet burgers, sandwiches, incredible salads, all-day brunch and so much more. And the desserts will be simply...stunning."

Gizmodo said there wouldn't be a river of chocolates, but people can expect an incredibly mouth-watering line of desserts to live up to its promise of bringing to life the famous chocolate factory.

Universal Orlando released a partial list of  their to-die-for milkshakes to look forward to once the "Toothsome Chocolate Factory" opens.

  • Chocolate x5: An explosion of chocolate with chocolate spirals, chunks, ice-cream and whipped cream.
  • Bacon Brittle: A fun twist on a breakfast favorite with bacon ice cream, bacon brittle, chocolate covered bacon and bacon caramel.
  • Espresso Buzz: A coffee lover's dream with coffee ice-cream and chocolate covered beans.
  • Red Velvet: A milkshake topped with a Red Velvet cupcake... enough said.
  • Key Lime Pie: We've taken this classic Florida dessert and turned it into a delicious shake. You'll even get a slice of pie on top!

Another feature of the chocolate factory is an open kitchen concept where the public can watch the magic as it happens, "You'll even be able to watch chocolate creations being made and purchase your very own from the restaurant's retail shop to take home and enjoy."

The Toothsome Chocolate Factory is yet to open by the end of the year but aficionados are already freaking out. Meanwhile, non-chocolate lovers can enjoy their steaks, burgers and all-day brunch menus.
