Queen Elizabeth II's favorite chocolates are at risk


Brexit is creating unease among UK citizens and embarrassment in government buildings. But if the subjects are not calm, the Queen Elizabeth certainly does not make joy jump: the chocolates so loved by the English Crown risk the stop

Like his subjects, also the Queen Elizabeth II could have to make a big waiver because of the infamous Brexit: his Chocolates favorite. The political turn of the UK with the exit fromEuropean Union brings with it consequences that are still not exactly clear and the panic begins to be tangible from the precautionary decisions of British producers and not.

The alarm went straight to the chocolate factory Charbonnel et Walker, who took precautions. As the British press reports, the company is stocking up on the ingredients needed to guarantee it Queen Elizabeth II and to the royal family to enjoy their chocolates without interruption even after the advent of Brexit. The link with the English Crown is fundamental to the company's successto chocolate factory, which only last year recorded an increase in turnover thanks to the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The package dedicated to them in a limited edition of chocolate truffles filled with champagne and decorated with edible gold it went like hot cakes!

Founded in 1875, the Charbonnel et Walker is one of the first chocolate factories in the United Kingdom. To encourage society among Mrs. Walker is Madame Charbonnel he was a member of the royal family, Edward VII. The first store was opened at 173 New Bond Street in Mayfair, now housed in the magical Royal Arcade of Old Bond Street, while production continues in the town of Tunbridge Wells, in Kent, about thirty miles from London. Honored by the prestigious Royal Warrant of Appointment, which ascertains the activity for the English Crown, this symbol gives much prestige and cannot be lost or scratched by political change.

Great success for Charbonnel et Walker not only at Buckingham Palace: chocolates have delighted aristocrats as well as British socialites to Hollywood movie stars. Loyal customers are the Princess Diana, Princess Margaret is Wallis Simpson, but also Virginia Woolf, Lauren Bacall, Cary Grant, just to name a few. The English actor Noël Coward he had a selection of cakes delivered to his home every fifteen days in the famous boîte blanche, which since 1909 has been a symbol of quality and luxury. A sweet habit not to be missed for political reasons!

Although March 13 there House of Commons has voted an amendment that asks the government to exclude in all circumstances the Brexit No Deal, this danger remains technically automatic on 29 March, if there was no agreement or extension approved by the EU, as reported by La Repubblica. In a nutshell, if the UK is treated as a non-EU country for customs purposes, it means that all customs formalities will apply, from the application of customs duties to endless declarations and countless documents. Not only that: some goods can also be applied prohibitions or restrictions making it necessary to release import or export licenses.

Last minute news is the block to the third vote on the agreement by the speaker of the Municipalities John Bercow, which leaves Brexit in a big and messy chaos.
