Could he possibly be made out of chocolate?

I have seen tin soldiers, wooden soldiers but never one as perfect as this made out of pure solid chocolate, 100% edible and handcrafted by Andrew Farrugia, a world renowned chocolate artist and carver.

This solid chocolate Nutcracker Soldier is Andrew’s Christmas present to me.  I am delighted and as he stands very proudly on a shelf in my living room,  it reminds me how truly gifted Andrew is.

And I am so very pleased that Andrew will be sharing his work with us every few weeks.
