Two weeks ago we were writing about chocolate hearts with secret messages in and we should probably be gearing up to write about chocolate bunnies and chocolate ducks and all things Easterish. But I say piffle to that (yes, piffle). I want to write about chocolate skulls.
The Chocolate Deli in Norfolk have gone all Damien Hirst with their chocolate treats and this solid skull is pretty chilling. But it'll be tasty and chilling. Perhaps it's creepier because it's lifesize - at first glance it looks pretty realistic to me.
I don't care. I want one. They're £60 each (and come in less fun milk and dark chocolate) but they weigh a whopping 2.5 kilos each. Woah.
I love them, but what say you? Cool? Cute? Creepy? Just plain tasty?
I think the skull is pretty cool! Just imagine snaffling a tooth as you walk past - yum! (Although it'd be even better if you could get the teeth in dark chocolate if you had the white skull, and vice versa...)
ReplyDeleteChoccywoccydoodah do them too. And they're closer than Norfolk!
ReplyDeleteWell, not if you like in Norfolk ;-)
DeleteSo cool! They should make a chocolate version of those models of bodies you get in school. It would be both educational and tasty...
ReplyDeleteYou want a whole chocolate skeleton? A whole chocolate Funny Bones family? In a dark dark wood...
Deletereally cool!
ReplyDeleteMy friends had a dark chocolate one of these sprayed with edible gold as their wedding cake topper. It looked amazing. I've been coveting it ever since but now I know where I can get my own :)
ReplyDeleteEdible glitter sounds like a really nice touch. As a wedding cake topper?! Love it.
DeleteBit chavvy if there's such a thing as chavvy chocolate..
ReplyDeleteI don't think there is, really...
DeleteHotel Chocolat had a 2D skull with gold leaf on for Halloween. Looked beautiful ... bet it tasted it too!
ReplyDeleteI think you have to hit it with a hammer to get into it. I approve.
DeleteI am going to order one of these for my wedding topper. The lady was really lovely on the phone and said that you can have layers of different chocolate and customise it to make it look more gory etc. I think this looks better than the choccywoccydoodah one! Can't wait to get one!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting idea for a wedding cake!
