Chocolate of the Day:

Shakespeare's Chocolate
(tagline is "Much ado about chocolate")
I-Scream Bar - Mint Chocolate Chip ("Mint Chocolate Chip Scoop piled on top of a Milk Chocolate Sugar Cone")
OK+ - Good - This 2D version of an ice cream cone is a clever concept (and I like their tagline as well); although I didn't really care for hydrogenated fat content. (Note: I just tasted the "ice cream" part and not the chocolate cone cookie part.)
Wt.: ~.3 oz. bite/5 oz. (141.75 grams) total
Calories: ~50 cals.
Cost: ~$6.00
Purchased from: Golden Nugget hotel and casino gift shop, Las Vegas, NV

Note: This scanned image of what the wrapping for this chocolate candy doesn't really do the packaging justice, as it's being shown without the chocolate inside - which looks like ice cream on the top, and a chocolate cone on the bottom.
