Gather round, chocolate fans — Chocolate Bytes is holding a contest and the prize is the geek-chic theobromine molecule T-shirt.

chocolate molecule t-shirt Theobromine is (uh, of course) the active ingredient in chocolate, that gentle stimulant that relaxes and refreshes and makes the world go round… and the T-shirt is just plain fun.

So what do you have to do, for a chance to win?

Locate the most obscure and/or bizarre chocolate item you can find online, or link to the contest on your blog (or both) —and leave a comment over at Chocolate Byte’s place to place your entry.

I entered, you bet — went with the chocolate business cards, but on second thoughts I probably should have gone for the chocolate bubble-wrap or the glitzy little chocolate shoes I wrote about a while back.

No, you know what? I can’t even tell you what I really should have chosen to enter as my pick for a bizarre chocolate item, because my silver-haired old mother might read this, and I’m still trying to convince her that she managed, against all odds, to raise A Lady here…

But here’s a little picture.

Now, I’m no prude… and heaven knows I’m a serious chocoholic… but, nope, if the Man of My Dreams were to swank into the boudoir dressed like a bon bon, I am perfectly sure that I’d just fall about pointing and laughing. Helpless, and not in a good way.

Pointing and laughing at any man’s treat basket — I’m just guessing here — is unlikely to enhance the romantic mood…

Boy, I sure hope I win that sweet little molecule T-shirt! It’ll take my mind off some of the things that people feel compelled to do with perfectly innocent chocolate…

    Have ya’ll heard about the Sharffen Berger contest? It’s posted on their website (and my blog) and there’s a $5K prize for the person that creates the best recipe made from SB chocolate and one “adventure ingredient.”

    @Chris, I truly believe every word you say…

    @Sharon, mmm, you lucky woman!

    @Mac, that all depends… are you talking hot young black leather Hound Dog rocker Elvis, or heavy sweating white jumpsuit Las Vegas Elvis?

    I’m not going to spring for the Hersey spa, Jen, no matter how much you beg! How about a nice Chocolate Elvis?
