You know how they say [Swiss chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolat-stella) is the best in taste? Well I think French chocolate is the best in presentation. The chocolatier **Jean-Paul Hévin** launched the first [chocolate bars without sugar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unchocolate-bars). These [abdominal muscle shaped bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protein-dubai-chocolate) come in three kinds: “Pecs,” Shelf “Muscle,” and “Fitness” without sugar. On Hévin’s official site, they describe the chocolate as powerful, manly, and intense.

I don’t know if I really believe all this nonsense: no chocolate in this world will make men more masculine. I lost hope a long time ago… Yes, I am bitter, as bitter as this suga-free, brown powder bar from Paris.

In case you are actually wondering, they sell for 2.20€ a bar.
