Chocolate liptstick
Master chocolatier Dominique Persoone brings out, after the chocolatesnuff machine for Rolling Stones, now also lipsticks and ediblemassage cream chocolate.
Beauty treatments have used chocolate for a while, but you are not allowed to taste it. Persoone mixed almond oil with original chocolate and mint. This cream penetrates the skin, gives a fresh feeling and, you can eat it. He is also testing a mix with lavender for a relaxing effect.
Revolutionary are the lipsticks based on chocolate. Food scientist Bernard Lahousse told Persoone that many lipsticks contain cocoa butter, so why not give lipstick a good taste? The result was surprising and easy: you place empty forms into a mould, squirt the filling in and let them set, like ice blocks.
