Recipe:
Orange wedge, for rim
Cocoa, for rim
1 1/2 oz vodka
1/2 oz creme de cacao
Hershey's Kiss, for garnish
Wet the rim of a martini glass with orange wedge and dip rim in cocoa to coat. Pour vodka and creme de cacao over a handful of ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake until cold, then strain into prepared glass. Drop Hershey's Kiss into the bottom of the glass, for garnish.
Some post-shot cloning of some stray cocoa powder, selective darkening of the black background and removal of a slight shadow on the right side. The Hershey's Kiss was suspended in the air by a skewer, on which I dripped Hershey's syrup and captured the drip with the 1-second exposure. The glass is sitting in a "pool" of Hershey's chocolate syrup. The "dust" is actually small air bubbles.

What a crazy glass I think maybe its had one to many
Nice warm colours Great shapes the only thing that ruins this image is
The table looks bitty but otherwise a great image and very clever idea.
Great shot, the choice of the colors here enhance you title chocolate, the unusal shape of the stem of the glass is great adding again to the shape challenge, I like it
