    I've never heard of "chocolate covered honey combs."
    Sounds good though.

    Sorry to go OT for a moment Nighthawk but Ted, have you never heard of a Violet Crumble or a Crunchie bar

    Incredible stuff! Are you actually going to use this in your demonstrations? It takes nuggets to do that in the first place never mind putting all that work into it then letting someone take a long sword to it. LoL

    I have 2 words to answer that question- HELL and NO!!

    So here's where it's at right now- mounted on the wood backing, dyed, antiqued, and drying.

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding the conversation. I was thinking of a piece of wax honeycomb from a bee hive that had been dipped in chocolate. I have squares of honeycomb that I have been slowly using, and saving the wax. No chocolate coating, but that was what I was thinking of.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    They're freeze dried, and then coated in chocolate.

    I just finished one... The honeycombs melt when you suck on them, leaving a hollow, honey tinged piece of chocolate.
