You may remember that when we heard about about Dick Hats--edible chocolate caps for the penises in your life--we just weren't convinced it was a legitimate business. So we struck up an amicable exchange with the proprietor, "D. Sanchez" (charming), and he agreed to send us some free samples. (Read our original post for all the deets.)

A few weeks passed and we started to wonder if we weren't right after all, that this was just some weird internet practical joke.

And then a few days ago a package arrived. It was a square shipping box about the size of a head (ever seen Seven?). We opened it with some trepidation, but were pleased to find inside two "chocolate party hats" (both pictured above) and a cold pack...

First, the chocolate really is tasty. It's not like that cheap plastic chocolate they make hollow Easter Bunnies out of.

But, if we're totally honest (and a part of us wants to fib because Senor Sanchez has been nothing but nice to us), we gotta say the concept as a whole isn't really working for us. Unless you're a porn star, the hats are just too big--they'll just sort of weeble-wobble on top of any average human specimen. The packaging is a bit low budge: a photocopied, hand-cut paper insert with the nutritional info on it and two stickers holding the plastic packaging together. Basically, they just don't look like they're really made with dicks in mind, just loosely repurposed for a funny concept.

That said, the packaging doesn't really matter when it comes to a gag gift like this (we couldn't avoid the pun even if we wanted to). It's a one-off joke that isn't intended for serious use. So if you think someone in your life might get a kick out of this (and not a kick in the ass for exhibiting such poor taste) or you've got a bachelor/ette party coming up (i.e. for later home use, not stripper use), then go for the viking helmet, which will be a much better fit than the cowboy hat. And whether or not it results in any oral, at least you'll have one tasty treat.

A gentleman never pushes a lady South by her shoulders, never uses her ears as a steering wheel, and never attempts to accelerate the pace of a blowjob by pushing on her head as if it were a toilet plunger. These gaucheries are not considered "hints."
