A client of [LUCA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/era-sync) Chocolate in Ramseur, North Carolina submitted a request for [chocolate-covered bacon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dubai-chocolate-crepe), complete with a video sampling (as seen here).

As popular opinion might indicate, the combination of these two popular food items just doesn't seem to work well, but the video here just may be enough to convince some of you to change your opinion.

On a side note, LUCA Chocolate also includes [bacon caramels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sour-punch-bacon-bites) and bourbon & black pepper truffles on their menu.
