EVAL_PERL needs to be set (or not - I'd advise against putting non-display logic into your templates) in your call to Template->new. e.g., 
my $tt = Template->new(
    INCLUDE_PATH        => 'tpl/',
    TRIM                => 1,
    WRAPPER             => 'wrapper.tt',
    EVAL_PERL           => 1,
);

Also, you might want to consider changing your question's title... You're doing this with Template::Toolkit, but there's a different (and unrelated) Perl templating module called HTML::Template. I originally read your question expecting to answer that HTML::Template doesn't support Perl in templates at all.

to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
