The Best Way to Drink Chocolate Beer is From a Chocolate Glass

Posted on by

My life changed when I sipped a shot of Bailey’s mixed with chocolate liquor. I guess you could say that my life changed at that point, because I never liked the taste of alcohol nor appreciated it all – until that very moment.

Japanese brewery Sankt Gallen is no stranger to chocolate booze.

Rocket News 24 is quick to explain that the chocolate glass might be able to counteract the bitterness of the the “ultra-dark beer”, which is apparently brewed “with over twice the ingredients of your average dark beer including roasted ‘chocolate malt.’”

Chocolate stout with a side of chocolate? Sounds good to me.

Man Scores Job With Candy Bar Résumé

Posted on by

Redditor Elilanger’s friend Nick was looking for a job. So he did what anyone else would do in his situation: browsed for jobs online for about 4 minutes before he got distracted by gifs of grampas falling down created a Résumé Bar. All his deets are included on what looks like a typical nutrition label for a candy bar. The best part? There’s a Crunch bar inside. Sure, it should have been a Snickers, but you know what? He still got the job! Congratulations Nick, I’m proud of you. The kind of pride a mother must feel the day her little girl finally grows up and marries a grody old dude for his fortune. Ooh! And there’s even a chocolate fountain at the reception. Love them ritzy-ass chocolate fountains. Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah — that’s how proud of you I am right now.

Best Of Both Worlds: Chocolate Whiskey

Posted on by

King’s County is a chocolate whiskey brought to us by Mast Brothers Chocolate. The hard stuff is distilled with some leftover cacao husks giving it a richly bitter flavor. Hey, I’m always down to binge on candy and booze (that’s basically my M.O.!), but combining the two? I’m not sure how I feel about that. Chocolate is delicious and sweet, but Whiskey ain’t some baby drank. That stuff can put some serious hair on your chest! Trust me. I mean — wait! Do-over, can I get a do-over? Fufufufuuuuuu!

Chocolate Bruce Willis Die Hard Sculpture: Yummy-Ki-Yay!

Posted on by

This chocolate sculpture of Bruce Willis was made for a press conference in Japan for the release of A Good Day To Die Hard. It looks even more like Bruce Willis than Joseph Gordon-Levitt did in Looper. It’s a good day to bite hard on this delicious sculpture.

Only the Japanese could take a pointless movie sequel and use it as a good excuse to make a life-sized chocolate treat. Who else is going to do it? No one! Thank you, kind people of Japan.

Come out to Japan… Check your own likeness in chocolate… Have a few bites. Little did John McClane know that Japanese terrorists had turned the heat up in the building, threatening to melt the sculpture unless they got 640 million dollars in bearer bonds.

Chocolate RAM: Chocolate Chips

Posted on by

To celebrate its 33rd anniversary, a Japanese electronics company called IO Data is going to give away a special Valentine’s Day treat to three lucky online shoppers. It’s a chocolate bar that looks like a RAM module!

As you can see they’re quite detailed; you can even make out the word ‘Samsung’ as well as other characters etched on it. Here’s a shot of the chocolate bar along with an actual RAM stick:

A confectionery shop called Maple House made the awesome chocolate bars, which IO Data are calling “Memory of Love Chocolate.”

Customers who bought or will buy from IO Data’s their online store between February 6 to February 15, 2013 will have a chance of winning a Memory of Love Chocolate. I guess you could say that the winners… will be picked randomly.

Do you like photography so much you could eat it? Because we do. Oh, indeed we do.

We can say a lot of stuff about Etsy user ChocCamera, but the prevalent comment would be that his/her user name is very well put. Here, we can see a camera sculpture made ...

Chocolate Camera: the Way to a Photographer’s Heart

Posted on by

…and to the dentist’s office. Etsy seller Hans Chung has created the opposite of the camera that looks like a chocolate bar. I wonder which of the two is stranger. You be the judge. Behold! A life-size chocolate replica of the Canon D60, including a lens and battery grip. Your teeth just fell off didn’t they?

According to Hans, the mold that he used to create the chocolate was made from an actual D60 and lens, which were both rendered unusable in the process of making said mold. Granted, Hans didn’t say if the camera was already broken when he bought it. Still, he earns points for authenticity there. Chocolate connoisseurs might be glad to know that Hans used Guittard chocolate to make the replica. Or you might not be glad. I don’t know what you guys are into.

Having digested all those details and images, I’m sure you know by now that this is is going to cost you. Hans is selling the solid chocolate Canon D60 camera on his Etsy shop for $500 (USD), i.e. half the price of the actual camera. If it’s any consolation, as of this writing Hans said that he will make only 5 more of these, which makes it a lot rarer than the actual D60.

Love Her? Then Eat Her: Japanese Cafe Molds Chocolate Into Women’s Faces

Chocolate Face

Does your chocolate have a face? And by face, we’re talking about the face of your significant other and not that of some random cartoon character or superhero. Chances are, it doesn’t, because these molded chocolate balls are only available from Shibuya’s FabCafe. They’re holding an event where female attendees can have their faces scanned so that molds of it can then be printed. The molds are filled with chocolate, and once it hardens, voila: they’ll have a handful of balls with their faces imprinted on each one.

Just in time for Valentine’s!

In case you were wondering why only women get to have chocolates made in their likeness, it’s because it’s the women who give out chocolates on February 14th in Japan.

Posted on by

Valentine’s Day is coming up and you know what that means — love is in the air! I bet you thought I was going to say something mega depressing about sending myself flowers from a secret admirer and crying in the shower over a box of chocolates that I had to buy for myself. Well, not this time! FabCafe in Shibuya is holding an event that offers face chocolates. They’ll take a scan of your face, print out a mold, fill it with chocolate, and PRESTO! There’s your face in chocolate form. Because nothing is more romantic than eating your lover’s face. Right? I don’t know for sure, I was just taking a stab in the dark. Annnnnnnnd I’m pretty sure I cut myself in the process. Someone turn on the lights and call an ambulance!

Sriracha Chocolate Bars Are Hot Stuff

Posted on by

Sriracha is hot right now. Actually Sriracha is always hot, but it’s hotness is really hot right now. That’s why it’s in everything these days—even chocolate. The Sriracha Spicy Chocolate Bar offers a unique blend of sweet and spicy flavors, making it an ideal gift for that spicy person in your life that you’re sweet on.
This isn’t the first time the hot cock has penetrated other foods with its spicy flavor (hehe). Recently Sriracha has been added to popcorn, lolipops, and lip balm—which technically isn’t a food, but technically that doesn’t stop me from eating it.
