The stuff that dreams are made of
Remember Elvis sightings? Yeah, that's soooo Twentienth Century.
As a chocolatier to the rich and famous, Martucci Angiano has posed with many celebrities.
But on Thursday she held in her hand a figure that dazzles her more than any Hollywood star: a 2-inch-tall column of chocolate drippings that workers at her gourmet chocolate company believe bears a striking resemblance to the Virgin Mary.
Since the discovery at Bodega Chocolates, Angiano's employees have spent much of their time hovering over the tiny figure, praying and placing rose petals and candles around it.
"I was raised to believe in the Virgin Mary, but this still gives me the chills," Angiano said as she balanced the figure in her hand. "Everyone should see this."
Yes, everyone should see it

And realize that what we have here is a yummy chocolate replica of the Maltese Falcon
