Which Western Canadian city has a dessert square named after it, made from a wafer-crumb crust, custard or icing in the middle, and melted chocolate on top?

Your Answer: Nanaimo, BC

Mmm, nanaimo bars are a favourite of mine! The origins of this treat are unconfirmed; some say a housewife invented them and submitted the recipe to a magazine in the 1950s, others say they were around in the 1930s, and some even say the bars were available in the 19th century! It is easy to make variations of this recipe; simply add a flavour to the custard/icing filling (mint and peanut butter are not uncommon), or use a different type of chocolate on top. https://www.funtrivia.com/submitquiz.cfm
