## Description

Pink Panther Wafers: Who Makes Them and What Is Inside, in summary: Crisp wafer layered with vanilla flavoured cream, supplied by Asvina of Watford under an MGM licence. The label names wheat and soya. Keep them sealed, skip the dunk, and pour something brisk or bitter.
Last reviewed by the teas.co.uk team in September 2026.
Pink Panther is a licence, not a bakery. The name and cartoon come from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and the wafers come from Asvina of Watford, a supplier of licensed and own brand foods that calls them a fixture of biscuit tins up and down the UK.
What goes into a Pink Panther wafer 
The construction is simple: thin sheets of crisp wafer with a vanilla flavoured cream layered between them, and Asvina says the current version has an even creamier filling. The published ingredient list for this barcode leads with palm and rapeseed oils, then sugar, wheat flour, wheat starch and potato starch, with soya lecithin as the emulsifier and a natural vanilla flavouring.
For the pink, the same list includes vegetable concentrates of red beetroot and red radish. On allergens, the label names wheat, which means gluten, and soya. Asvina lists the wafers as suitable for vegetarians. As with any biscuit, the pack in your hand has the final say, because recipes and allergen advice can change.
Keeping a wafer crisp, and why not to dunk 
A wafer is baked almost dry and is largely air, so it keeps its crunch while the pack is sealed and gives it up fast once it is open. An open pack left in a steamy kitchen can go soft within a day. Fold the pack tight or tip the wafers into an airtight tin, and keep them well away from the kettle and the hob.
Do not dunk them. With no crumb to draw the tea up evenly, a wafer floods with tea in one go and falls apart, so there is no safe window, however quick. They belong beside the cup. That also makes them tidy on a party plate or in a lunchbox: light, quick to eat and gone before anyone's attention drifts.
Who they suit and what to pour 
These are a children's party and lunchbox wafer first, and a nostalgic one for adults who remember them from the family tin. They are sweet and delicate rather than rich, and nobody should expect a butter shortbread. Judge them as a light, bright treat for a mixed biscuit plate and they do exactly what they set out to do.
For drinks, the sweetness needs something to push against. A brisk, strong black tea with milk works, and so does a black coffee, because the wafer brings no bitterness of its own. A vanilla rooibos echoes the filling for anyone who prefers a gentler cup, while hot chocolate and other sugary drinks tend to double the sweetness and make the plate cloying.

FAQ
Who makes Pink Panther Wafers? Asvina, a Watford-based supplier of licensed and own brand foods, under a licence for the Pink Panther name and character from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
What makes Pink Panther Wafers pink? The published ingredient list for this barcode includes vegetable concentrates of red beetroot and red radish, the only ingredients on it that would give a pink colour.
Are Pink Panther Wafers suitable for vegetarians? Asvina lists them as suitable for vegetarians. The label names wheat (gluten) and soya among the ingredients.
Can you dunk them? No. A wafer floods in an instant and collapses, so eat them beside the cup.
How should I store an open pack? Airtight and dry, away from the kettle. Wafers soften far faster than denser biscuits once the air gets to them.
Curator's note: Put them on the party plate and let the children find them. For the grown-ups, a strong cup and one wafer is about right. Lee, teas.co.uk, Tunbridge Wells.
