“Political chocolate” was marketed in Russia
A Russian company started to sell “Political chocolate”. The covers of the bonbon boxes are made along the lines of the former Soviet propaganda posters, and such messages can be read on them like: “Men and women, do not chat Obama listens!”.
The Konfael company in addition to the “patriotic” bonbons, also launched lollipops depicting the satirical portrait of Western leaders in Russia. On the lollipops caricatures on the US President Barack Obama, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Francois Hollande can be found. One piece of the bonbon collection, however, celebrates Russian President Vladimir Putin. (MTI)
