Spotted this on collectSPACE — beautiful, delectible space-themed/named chocolates by Choclatique. Choclatique needs to get itself a findable press release/image resource section. The box of 15 lovely chocolates can be ordered at the aforementioned product page, where the pictures are far from sufficiently sized, but the descriptions are worth a peek!

Flavors include: Apollo Almond, Basalt Boysenberry, Cosmic Crunch Caramel, Galactic Grape, Extraterrestrial Mint, Lunar Lemon Caramel, Lift Off Lime, Mission Control Fig, Moon Rocks Mousse, Nasa Nuts, Pluto Pomegranate Caramel, Solar Sesame, Rocket Raspberry, Stellar Strawberry Shortcake and Tangy Orange. And believe me, based on the descriptions I am prepared to eat the entire box by myself.

It has been 40 years since the crew of Apollo 11 braved the new frontier of space. Commander Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon. He, and the crew of the “Sea of Tranquility,” are truly American heroes.

In celebration of this monumental achievement in human history, Choclatique is proud to present our 40th Anniversary tribute to all of the “Moon Walkers” and those who made those historic steps possible, with our chocolate Moon Rocks Collection.

Never having been to the moon, we used our imaginations as to what a real moon rock might look like, including lots of facets, and the use of vibrant colors and even gold streaks to show striations and differing geological patterns. We hope we did them justice!
