Jason sez, "A follow up to last years insanely popular Chocolate Cthulhu Idol comes the Giant Chocolate Cthulhu Idol. Standing 7.5 inches tall and weighing a sanity shattering 2 lbs, this solid green chocolate treat is a must have for the devoted cultist." (Thanks, Jason!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    Green? As in all the way through? How does that work?

       I would tell you, but the blasphemous secret of this abnormal chocolate, stupendous in its malign suggestiveness, would drive your feeble mind to insanity.

      • Antinous / Moderator

        Maybe the complementary-ish pigment that would make it brown exists in another dimension.

        • TheMudshark

           I found the recipe in “Cooking with the Mad Arab” by Abdul Alhazred. It came as a free promotional item with the 3rd edition reprint of the Necronomicon.

       I´m guessing white chocolate + green food coloring at least for the outer layer, and the same inside or just normal chocolate.
      Eat it and find out!

    Green chocolate is an abomination and a stench in the nostrils of our Lord.

    A video of one slowly melting in a microwave would be good for some Youtube views, I reckon. (Ooh! Especially if played in reverse!)

    Why are they not calling this “Cthocolate”? I mean, come on!
