Lindt’s made a 3kg chocolate teapot – and a guide to eating its chocolate with tea
Lindt has unveiled its first edible, dark chocolate teapot.
Rather unfortunately, there’s only one, and it’s not for sale – but you can go and visit it.
The enticing 70 per cent cocoa crockery item is intended to go with tea – but obviously can't be used for brewing itself.
For anyone who fancies a cuppa and a butchers, it's on display at Bea’s of Bloomsbury from tomorrow until 18 June.

The one-off number is the brainchild of Lindt’s master chocolatier, Stefan Bruderer, and chocolate artist, Paul Wayne Gregory.
It’s intended to promote Lindt’s new range of chocolate-tea pairings, The helpful guide, which is availale in full on the company's website, is “guaranteed to elevate your tea break into the sublime”, Lindt assures.
