Larva Chocolate disgustingly sweet

Posted on the January 25th, 2008 under Food by Ryman

A unique chocolate made to look like a beetle larva has captured the fancy of candy aficionados in Japan. Produced by the Komatsuya confectionery and bakery based in Akita prefecture, the bite-sized Larva Chocolates (Youchu Choco) have a grub-shaped body made from milk chocolate and corn flakes, a layer of skin made from white chocolate, legs made from tiny strips of dried squid, and a dainty mouth made from orange peel.

This product is hand-produced at about 400 pieces per day and you can get them online (Japan only) for 210 yen ($2) each.
