Sagres Preta Chocolate

How do you make a web site out of real chocolate? The makers of Sagres-Preta Chocolate in Portugal have truly outdone themselves in more ways than one by creating what might very well be the world’s first chocolate web site. And no, I don’t simply mean a web site about chocolate, but a web site created out of real chocolate that you can eat and lick off of your fingers!

3D printing has just gotten cool. I mean really cool. There is no denying that the idea of being able to print objects that actually look real and that you can actually touch and play with is nice.

Chocolate Covered Bacon

Chocolate Covered Bacon

Finally a real bacon delicacy that is fresh and made out of real products and flavor. The chocolate covered bacon is made from hickory smoked bacon that is cooked in the oven until golden and crispy.

Actually, scratch that — they’d probably just eat the pieces mid-game. Here are some chocolate chess pieces which come in a tube that transforms into the board itself. Apparently inspired by folklore, when a Croatian and Italian king play chess with prizes of islands off the Croatian coast, this is a set you can only play one game with before having to buy another one. Best not to play it at the height of summer either. Read more »
