I think a lot more people would be into SLR photography if they has access to chocolate cameras like this one.

Painstakingly modeled after a [Canon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transforming-camera-toys) D60 by [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/create-a-wedding-registry) user Hans Chung, this is a pretty incredible replica of one of the most popular professional grade cameras in the world. Chung points out on his website that the chocolate camera doesn't come with a chocolate SD card, camera strap or lens cap. No mention of a chocolate tripod, but that would be awesome.

The camera is completely edible, which means its actual picture taking capabilities are sadly non-functional. Chung has only made three of the chocolate cameras and says that he will only be making five more. That's pretty [limited edition chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ed-ruscha-x-andsons) that would otherwise make a sweet Valentine's Day gift for the photographer in your life.
