Shining Himi-Choco
Valentine's Haniwa chocolate from Himiko.
A miraculous Haniwa-shaped chocolate masterpiece personally made by the legendary first queen of Yamataikoku. Some may note that Haniwa were made dominantly during the Kofun period (later than the Yamataikoku period), but that's okay because the queen has provided an oracle saying that the latter half of the Yayoi period just barely makes the cut.
To the queen, whose only hobby during her life was collecting Haniwa and mirrors (how rude!), there is no doubt that her Haniwa aesthetic skills are at an A+ level, which is quite an extraordinary feat heretofore unwitnessed in Japanese history. And thanks to this skill, her Haniwa molding powers have enabled her to create very endearing Haniwa. On top of that, some sort of mysterious light wave emanates from it, which makes it feel like it's healthy too!
Once upon a time, a certain older sister and younger brother enjoyed a moment kneading clay together. That's right...to her, this handmade chocolate is a gift for one she considers to be extremely important.
