It feels too early to be writing about Christmas, and downright blasphemous to be writing about Valentine’s Day. Nevertheless, Sailor Moon Valentine’s Day chocolates have been announced, and despite their early arrival, they might be worth pre-ordering, because they look delightful.
Part of the ARTism CHOCO series, this “~Story of Moonlight~” chocolate set features vibrant (and of course, edible) illustrations on each chocolate, and a beautiful box with both exterior and interior artwork.
Each set contains ten pieces—two with raspberry filling, and eight with an almond praline filling. Pre-orders can be placed on Premium Bandai for 2,700 yen (about US$25.07). The chocolates will ship next February.
