I understand the desire for businesses to appear original or avante garde, but this just seems like a ridiculous waste of time and money to me. What in the world is anyone supposed to do with this creation? Will it be displayed for eternity in a museum? Will some chocolate lover with more dollars than sense purchase it and keep the rocks as a souvenir?

The $5mn Valentine Chocolate has broke the records of the latest $1.65mn Diamond Fruit Cake. This time it is not created by a Chef or Chocolatier but by a Tokyo based jeweler. The bitter chocolate was baked with over 2000 sparkling diamonds, in the mold of an African continent. The combo becomes unusual as two luxury products, bitter chocolates and diamonds are set on the theme of Nationality.
