This week, Manchester welcomes the arrival of a new X-rated waffle shop that is putting quite the cheeky twist on dessert.
Called Mr D*ck, it’s based over in Shudehill and, whilst it will officially open its doors this Thursday, the new shop is already blowing up on social media thanks to its outrageous chocolate-dipped dongs.
Here at the new hot-pink French waffle shop, customers can lick edible d*cks and vulvas to their heart’s content for just £8.50 a pop – with a choice of six different chocolates to drizzle them with, including a gold one and a regularly changing daily chocolate special (currently Nutella).

There’s also the choice of pink chocolate, white chocolate, plus toppings like rainbow vermicelli, ruby and gold crunch, marshmallows, Lotus Biscoff, crushed Oreos and nuts to help you really jazz up your naughty treat.
Extra toppings can be added on for 40p each, like packets of Smarites, Kinder Bueno wafers, Cadbury Flakes and mini meringues, for those who really want to go the whole hog (pun intended).

And that’s not all, there are drinks too for those who “need something wet” as the menu cheekily suggests.
As well as a range of coffees, teas and sof drinks, you’ll also find an indulgent milkshake menu with choices like Reese’s Cup, Kinder Bueno and Oreo, and pots of soft serve topped with a chocolate of your choice.
Owner Lory Grigore told The Manc he was inspired to open the new shop after spending time travelling in America. Here, he tried the treats for the first time and had a lightbulb moment – deciding it was a great idea to bring them to Manchester.
Now, he’s gearing up to open the shop this Thursday. Come 12pm when the doors swing open, we expect there will be quite the queue… and the rest, well, is sure to be d*ckstory.
Mr D*ck opens this Thursday at Shudehill, seven days a week from 12-7pm.

Netflix drops the first trailer for upcoming Peaky Blinders film
Danny Jones
It looks like Christmas has come early for TV drama fans and cinephiles, because Netflix has officially dropped the first trailer for the upcoming Peaky Blinders movie.
Popcorn at the ready – even the teaser alone has got us fired up.
ln just 70 seconds, they’ve managed to pull us right back in, and we cannot wait to see Cillian Murphy back in full-on Tommy Shelby mode.
Not exaggerating when we say we have LITERAL chills.
As you can see, they certainly haven’t scrimped on the budget with the first-ever feature-length Peaky Blinders film, neither in terms of production value nor the cast.
Then again, having already hosted the likes of Sam Neill, Tom Hardy, Adrien Brody, Anya Taylor-Joy and others in the series itself, as well as going on to become one of the most successful BBC shows of all time, they were never going to.
We’re sure you spotted plenty of them for yourselves, but the debut trailer for The Immortal Man gives us not only our first glimpses of now Oscar-winning Murphy, 49, back in the saddle (both figuratively and literally) but also fellow blockbuster Irish actor, Barry Keoghan.
Other big names set to appear in the movie – set for a limited release in theatres before launching exclusively on Netflix – include Rebecca Ferguson and Tim Roth. It still remains unclear, however, as to how any of these characters will knit into the new season.
It’s also worth noting that the trailer shares a little snippet of the historical context, this continuation of the Shelby story is playing into, as we see what looks to be Nazi figures meeting on screen.
Creator Steven Knight has already confirmed that the plot will fast-forward some years to meet back up with Tommy at the outset of WWII and his ancestral home of Birmingham during the Blitz.
Having already confirmed 6 March as the theatrical release date ahead of it going live on Netflix a fortnight later, the anticipation was seriously starting to ramp; this latest look has only added to the tinderbox of excitement.
What do you make of the Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man trailer, and will you be watching it?
