sheet commemorating 400 years of Chocolate's arrival in Europe in 1609,
La Poste has created a block of chocolate-scented stamps.
The block of 10 stamps (€0.56 each, for
€5.60) is designed to look like a bar of chocolate and even smells like
one. The stamps depict scenes from the history and manufacture of
chocolate.
The ink used on the stamps contains microcapsules which provide a chocolate scent that will reportedly last up to two years.
