Chocolate that doesn't melt on a hot day (actually thrives in it). Love it!

True, it won't melt, that's the best kind! :)

Hmm....they do make edible inks for cakes. I have also seen chocolate-covered sunflower seeds before...might be a better option :)

Do you know what variety of sunflower this is Gardengem? Only one this colour I can find is called "Black Magic", and wondered if this is it.

David, I'm not sure on this variety. It was at a public garden.

Thanks for the reply Gardengem. "Black Magic" looks almost the same, so will probably try growing it next summer.
