| Chocolate
Roulette
Eating
chocolate is not something most of us usually
associate with raw, buttock-clenching tension.
A quick straw poll around Firebox HQ showed
that the closest any of us has ever come to
this pleasure-meets-pain-style sensation was
when we shared a tube of Smarties whilst watching
the final episode of 24.
The thing is, chomping on
choccy has always been a relatively humdrum
experience... Until now.
Because
by combining one of life's great pleasures
(chocolate) with one of death's best buddies
(Russian Roulette), clever confectioners have
come up with this fiendishly amusing gift
box.
Seated
in individual compartments, twelve chocolate
bullets lay waiting to be bitten into. Although
eleven of the sweet little slugs contain delicious
praline centres, one conceals a seriously
red hot chilli that's guaranteed to blow your
head off - metaphorically, at least.
The great thing about encasing
something so palate-peelingly hot in chocolate
is that it takes a few seconds for the 'victim'
to register that he or she has just bitten
into the wrong bullet. So relief and delight
are rapidly replaced by abject horror, an
expression reminiscent of Kenneth Williams
getting into a hot bath, a volley of garbled
expletives and a manic sprint to the nearest
tap!
As
far as Russian Roulette-style games go, this
is right up there with old chestnuts like
the Beer Hunter - you know, when you shake
up a couple of cans, mix them with a dozen
untouched ones, and then jerk the ring pulls
in close proximity to your head.

Chocolate-opoly
A
decadently delicious property trading game
for chocolate lovers!
Dark,
milk, bittersweet, semi-sweet, in a shake,
filled with caramel, covered in nuts, or as
a warm, frothy brew - there's nothing the
cocoa bean can't do.
In
this game, players buy favorite chocolate
properties, collect chunks of chocolate and
trade them in for chocolate factories.
Sounds
easy enough but pay your conching fees, suppress
your cravings or get sent to Chocoholics Anonymous
and it becomes a little more difficult...and
a lot more fun!
So
choose your token and roll the dice! Who knows?
You may be chosen as a "Supertaster"
or you may experience Death by Chocolate.
Here's
a game for the true chocophile without the
calories!

2-6 players, ages 8 to 80.

Chocolate
Fountain
Invention
is 93% perspiration, 6% electricity, 4% evaporation
and 2% butterscotch ripple." Yes, we
know that makes 105% but Willy Wonka said
it so who are we to argue?
Speaking
of the eccentric chocolatier, we wouldn't
be at all surprised if he had a hand in the
creation of the new and improved Cascade Bowl
Chocolate Fountain, as it looks like something
you might find in his enchanted factory.
The
spectacular Cascade Bowl Chocolate Fountain
really does flow with lashings of warm liquid
chocolate.
Simply
fill it up, turn it on and watch in wonder.
Once you've recovered from the shock of seeing
those mesmerising curtains of choccy you can
get busy dipping your delicacies.
Strawberries
are stupendous, fudge is fantabulous and marshmallows
are magnificent (forgive the alliteration
- we're feeling wonderfully Wonka-esque).
But the truth is pretty much anything you
can shove on a stick tastes amazing when it's
covered in warm, gooey chocolate.
So
how does the idiot-proof Cascade Bowl Chocolate
Fountain work, then? We'd love to tell you
that a team of Oompa Loompas has been crammed
inside but we know you're not that gullible.
Besides, we've looked. Basically the chocolate
is heated in the basin and carried to the
top of the fountain via a rotating internal
shaft. This eliminates the usual blockages
associated with pumps - something Mr Wonka
could've done with when Augustus Gloop got
greedy.
Better
still the Cascade features an all-new superior
flowing action for ultra-consistent curtains
of choc. And thanks to its unique removable
bowl/tier system you can chuck chocified components
in the dishwasher.
This
beautifully built structure is perfect for
parties and sweet-toothed soirees. And you
can imagine the commotion it causes when guests
clap eyes on it - think Golden Ticket holders
gawping at the Chocolate Room and you're halfway
there.
The
Cascade Bowl Chocolate Fountain is so extraordinary
we wouldn't be surprised if it sold out faster
than a heap of WonkaBars during a Golden Ticket
promotion, so we suggest you get ordering
now. Altogether now: "Come with me, and
you'll be, in a world of..."
