"Despite the documented evidence of chess historian H.J.R. Murray, I have always thought that chess was invented by a goddess." George Koltanowski, from Women in Chess, Players of the Modern Game

Chocolate Chess Sets
In honor of Valentine's Day, for chess lovers, chocolate lovers and lovers in general!
From JaCiva's (image), traditionally styled Staunton chess pieces in white chocolate and milk chocolate. For the $49.95 price, the chess board is included (but it's not edible).
The Candy Warehouse is offering a handmade gourmet Belgian chocolate chess set with edible board for $179.50. Over 2 pounds of chocolate in the set. Astor Chocolate is offering a similar or the same set (by the same maker) for $175.00. It's a beautiful set presented in a lovely gift box complete with pull-out drawer for the chess pieces, but perhaps a little pricey.
