Hello this is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English.

I'm Neil and I'm Neil.

And I'm Beth.

In Britain, millions of kids grow up reading the books of Roldahl.

Before his death in 1990, Rold Dahl wrote over 30 children's books, including bestsellers like Matilda

and the BFG.

But one book in particular is many people's favourite.

Charlie and the chocolate factory.

Ah yes, I remember the story of Charlie Bucket,

the poor kid whose luck turns around

when he wins a golden ticket to the local chocolate factory. The factory is run by the mysterious

Willy Wonka who invents all kinds of sweets and chocolates for the children to try, everything from strawberry coated fudge to

marshmallow pillows.

Neil, I really wanted to visit that chocolate factory.

Now if that story sounds familiar, then maybe as a kid he also dreamed of tasting chocolate for a living

in this program we'll be meeting a real life willy wonka someone whose job involves exactly that, inventing and tasting chocolate bars.

And as usual, we'll be learning some useful new vocabulary too.

Hello Antilla has the kind of job most people can only dream of.

Hella is head of research and development at Fazer, a confectionery company in Finland,

which has been making and selling chocolate for over 130 years.

Heller is responsible for buying the cocoa beans used to make chocolate and coming up with ideas for new chocolate products to sell.
