"The bar has a "wow" factor with everyone who sees it. "
Yes but does the chocolate have an "euuch" factor with everyone who tastes it?

==================================================
Appreciate you think there must be some weird formula to do this but they are pure top quality tasty white choc - nothing else.
Nobody has complained re the taste in fact most compliment it.
We can make this with virtually any white chocolate. Tastes vary in chocolate in different countries so we vary the formulation to suit the local market. What we sell in our home market of the UK everyone here seems to think is great.
We are launching soimething unique here and want repeat sales, we are not daf enough as to spoil it with poor grade choc.
The only bars that might be down to taste are the Taj Mahal and coffee cup design bars which are mint flavoured white choc. Great with coffee after an Indian meal or with coffee generally but obviously very sweet tasting.
All other designs are pure tasty white choc.

Why only white chocolate?
Because it is the varying thickness of the chocolate stopping light coming through the bar that makes up a detailed photo to 1/10th mm definition. The whole bar is a photo when held up to any light. In daylight becomes 3d.
Milk choc is not light permeable hence does not work. We do tint eg green or orange spooky faces for halloween. We will also be offering combination product soon eg white choc chocpix with milk choc pic frame.
And in case anyone thinks choc must be very thin - Standard A6 size bar is 85g
