Britsh retailer giant Marks & Spencer has launched new Valentine's Day chocolates that have garnered a lot of attention online. The new collection is made to bring a playful nod to the upcoming holiday with treats including the 'solid creamy milk chocolate' and the 'You're Appealing' or 'Love Struck' candies.
The Love Struck chocolate is designed in the shape of a Cupid's arrow piercing through a red heart -- it has a personified face with raised eyebrows. Other details include the 'phallic' appearance. The You're Appealing chocolate is a delicious layer of chocolate that is shaped like a winking banana. It is filled with butterscotch biscuit pieces for a textural crunch. Notably, the brand is no stranger to suggestive treats.
