Shoe Treats to sweet to Eat

See what I did there? So clever at 1:16 AM

Frances Cooley is a boutique cake maker and trained chocolatier. Her love affair with chocolate began at the age of five, when her mom bought a block of chocolate back from Mexico. Frances found the original shoe mould on a trip to Antwerp and was inspired to make some chocolate zebra print shoes because she’d always loved zebra print shoes. And chocolate. Gorgeous handbags are the perfect partners for sexy stiletto shoes, so Frances designed and patented her own handbag design, tracking down a local manufacturer to create a set of moulds. Polka dots and leopard print joined the zebra print, and Choc Chic was born.

These are the cutest things in the world, but I could never eat them. I can’t eat anything that is too pretty to eat. Ginger bread houses – no way. Don’t even think about sending me an Edible Arrangements piece. It will stay with me forever until it rots having never been touched!

I like these though. Can they just not be made out of chocolate please so I can keep them forever?
