1. Well, that's a disappointment. I was hoping for something more, y'know, room-sized

5. Once, at Trader Joe's, I saw a box of what appeared to be chocolate-covered asparagus spears...
.
.
.
...and my conflicting thoughts were...
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
..."That's one of the most disgusting ideas that I've ever seen" and...
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
..."I JUST GOTTA HAVE ME SOME O' THEM!!!!!"
.
.
.
.
.
You probably KNOW which side won out.
.
.
.
The spears appeared to be covered in white chocolate (YUMMY) and the
tips in dark.
.
.
.
Turns out they were all chocolate -- just molded really well.
.
.
.
And it was one of the best chocolates that I've ever had. When I went back,
they told me it was one of their one-time products that they'll probably
never see again.

6. Maybe you could ask them if they still have the molds.
There used to be a little gelato and chocolates place in my old neighborhood and they had some cool chocolate molds. Such as Texas-sized cockroaches, i.e., about 2-3 inches long. Perfect for chocolate, too, as both have similar colors }(

Looks like the asparagus mold is a vintage kind of thing:

Or, just make your own molds: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VspcE56J3UE


I expect to see some chocolate "asparagus" soon now
