There is no limit where imagination can take you. During the time when the Euro currency was introduced entrepreneurs plunged into creating business ideas and Euro chocolate was one such. While in Belgium on a holiday I visited a shop and there I saw these Euro chocolates. They were no different from any other chocolate except they were wrapped in golden foil representing a Euro coin. I just did not want to eat them and eat I finally did but preserved the wrapper. Any creative chocolates you have come across? Image credit:

We have chocolate coins at different holidays but I always thought it was too fiddly to unwrap them so I preferred eating M&M chocolates. I'm eating Peanut M&Ms right now.

Not just these lots of other chocolates come wrapped in foil. I do not mind spending time opening them though.

@DaddyEvil Then you would have liked what I got while I was on holiday in Australia. In a Mall they were selling chocolates that were there in a heap unwrapped. I bought a kilo. They were each a mouthful

@allknowing Yeah, I like Kisses but find them just as fiddly as the chocolate coins.

We used to have chocolate bars in the size of an American dollar, wrapped in foil that resembled the paper of a dollar. I don’t think I bought one though. I like the picture of the chocolate “Euro” coin. I’m sure it was fun for people to buy.

We always had Swiss Franc chocolates here and also small chocolate golden bars. The coins is plain milk chocolate wrapped to look like coins. The golden bars contains two "cremini" pralines with hazelnuts mixed to chodolare, good.

Belgium chocolates are the best provided they are made there.
