Custom Week prize #7: Chocri chocolate

Custom chocolate is pretty exciting, even when you realize that $100 won’t go nearly as far as you’d hope. After I finished the Giant Box of Chocolate Bars 2011 in August, I was in sore need of a little sweet nibble at the end of my lunch. The temptation, as always with these customizable products, is to go insanely custom, ending up with an one-of-a-kind, thoroughly inedible product. We tried to resist and modify or recreate known favorites.

J, in protest to my generosity with the Slank Shack jerky prize, possessively labeled all his custom chocolate bars “DO NOT GIVE AWAY.” This was our most perfect score in terms of spending; we spent our $100 gift certificate down to $99.87 by carefully controlling our last few add-ins.

The bad news is that we ordered on September 30, and have seen neither hide nor hair of our chocolate bars (eww, hairy chocolate). I sent an email to customer service this morning, so we’ll have to see what happens.
