Brazilian brand Cleiton has announced the launch of Vapezinhos de Chocolate (Little Chocolate Vapes), a one-of-a-kind milk chocolate product that intends to offer a tongue-in-cheek take on the chocolate cigarette treats that were popular in the 1950s.
Here, as its name suggests, the faux cigarettes have been replaced with completely edible chocolate vapes, a design decision that is meant to reflect the current shift towards vape culture in South America. According to the company, the goal of the new Vapezinhos de Chocolate treats is actually to stop young children from vaping by raising their awareness of their potential harm.
The chocolate vapes come packaged in a distinctly retro design that intends to mimic the look of the packaging used by Brazilian chocolate company Chocolate Pan, which was widely known for its own chocolate cigarette treats.
