A real-life Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory is being created!

Here’s hoping they’ll make a river of chocolate that we just happen to ‘fall’ into like Augustus Gloop.

A new restaurant in the style of Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory – we repeat, WILLY WONKA’S CHOCOLATE FACTORY – is making its way to Orlando’s Universal Studios.

Called Toothsome Chocolate Factory, visitors will be transported “into a 19th century-inspired Steampunk chocolate factory” complete with “towering smoke stacks, funky gadgetry, and staff wearing unique Steampunk fashion,” according to the official Universal Orlando blog.

The restaurant will serve “unique twists on classic steak, seafood and pasta entrees, gourmet burgers, sandwiches, incredible salads, all-day brunch and so much more.”

There’s no mention of lickable wallpaper or snozzberry-flavoured anything, but we guess the mouth-watering line-up of desserts will have to do. We’re expected to see insane milkshakes and sundaes with cookies and candy all over them.

You’ll even be able to see the chocolate creations being made, and you can buy them at the restaurant’s retail shop to devour basically on the spot.

The chocolate wonderland will open later this year, and the best part is that it’s not actually inside the park so you don’t have to fork out the theme park admission fee!

Here’s hoping they’ll make a river of chocolate that we just happen to ‘fall’ into like Augustus Gloop.
