CHOCOLATE!!!

Now that I have your attention ... this week's hottie contest was quite possibly a first in the Snake Pit -- the winner of the vote was an inanimate hottie, a chocolate statue! That's right, a gorgeous reproduction of Michelangelo's statue of David made entirely of chocolate. Feast your eyes on this confection:

This work of edible art can be viewed at the Chocolate Art Gallery of the Phillip Island Chocolate Factory near Melbourne, Australia. I also heard a rumor that there is a chocolate statue of another lovely David  (Beckham) in Tokyo, but he is wearing a lot more clothing.

For the next week's hottie contest, nominate your favorite hotties with wings. Angels, demons, anime characters, steampunk inventors -- if they're wearing wings, post a picture with the hottie's name in the Snake Pit hotties thread.
