Candymakers Spot Chocolate Virgin Mary
California Confectioners Say Dripping Chocolate Resembles Religious Figure
FOUNTAIN VALLEY, CA*

[No, this is NOT a spoof! --JZ] As a chocolatier to the rich and famous, Martucci Angiano has posed with many celebrities. But on Thursday she held in her hand a figure that dazzles her more than any Hollywood star: a 2-inch-tall column of chocolate drippings that workers at her gourmet chocolate company believe bears a striking resemblance to the Virgin Mary. [Click HERE for the source and a photo of the pile. --JZ]

Since the discovery at Bodega Chocolates, Angiano's employees have spent much of their time hovering over the tiny figure, praying and placing rose petals and candles around it. [1]

"I was raised to believe in the Virgin Mary, but this still gives me the chills," Angiano said as she balanced the figure in her hand. "Everyone should see this." [2]

Kitchen worker Cruz Jacinto was the first to spot the lump of melted chocolate when she began her shift Monday cleaning up drippings that had accumulated under a large vat of dark chocolate; Chocolate drippings usually harden in thin, flat strips on wax paper, but Jacinto said she froze when she noticed the unusual shape of this cast-off: It looked just like the Virgin Mary on the prayer card she always carries in her right pocket. [3]

Angiano's employees have spent
much of their time hovering over
the tiny figure, praying and placing
rose petals and candles around it.

"When I come in, the first thing I do is look at the clock, but this time I didn't look at the clock. My eyes went directly to the chocolate," Jacinto said. "I thought, 'Am I the only one who can see this?' I picked it up and I felt emotion just come over me. [4]

"For me, it was a sign." [ . . . a sign that you are going mad? A sign that you have no real faith?!]

The chocolate, on display for most of the week in the front of the company gift shop, now rests in a plastic case in a back room. It is brought out for curious visitors. The confection has a wide base and tapers gently toward a rounded top, giving the appearance of a female figure with her head tilted slightly to the right. The dark brown melting chocolate hardened into subtle layers that resemble the folds of a gown and a flowing veil.

A tiny white circle, about the size of a pencil eraser, sits in the upper center of the creation. Cruz said the white speck is the head of the Baby Jesus as he is held in Mary's folded arms. [5]

For Jacinto, the discovery came just in time. Raising a son on her own, she has struggled with marital problems for months and said she was about to lose her faith. "I have big problems right now, personally, and lately I've been saying that God doesn't exist," she said, pulling the dog-eared prayer card out of her pocket. "This has given me renewed faith." [6]

Angiano, who co-owns the 10-year-old company with her sister, has rubbed shoulders with plenty of stars in her job. The gourmet boutique runs booths at all the big awards shows, including the Emmys, the Golden Globes, the Oscars, the Country Music Awards and the Latin Grammys. Pictures of Angiano with top celebrities, and her chocolates, line the office walls. [7]

*Literally a few minutes drive from my home. *sigh*

[1] So it takes some melted chocolate to get them praying? And I seem to remember a rather prominent verse in the Bible about not worshiping graven images or something like that... Worshiping a pile of melted chocolate? Come on ladies - Please . . .

[2] Everyone in the world? Or just everyone in the USA. This pile of chocolate does nothing, is nothing. There is no reason for all the rapt attention. Emotionalism is not a good thing, ladies.

[3] Gee, I don't know - could it be the ridiculous heat of the last week that caused the chocolate to be more soft and 'drippy?' Think, ladies, think.

[4] That's not emotion, that's the blood rushing out of your brain.

[5] No, the white speck is not the baby Jesus. Do I really have to tell you this?

[7] Ok, that's relevant to the story. "They work with Hollywood stars." Perhaps what the reporter is getting at is either (a) the Hollywood crowd's zany thinking has rubbed off on them, or (b) they want desperately for Hollywood stars to believe in a chocolate pile and heap a lot of attention on their chocolate shop.

Look friends, The Knight will tell you, I am a fervent supporter of the Catholic Church, it's teaching and it's spiritual leadership in these rough times for the citizens of the world. But this kind of thing is pure hogwash. I feel sorry for these women. So bereft of genuine faith - she said herself that she'd been saying God does not exist - she falls all over herself over a drippy pile of chocolate.

Faith must not be based upon whether or not your marriage succeeds, Cruz. Your faith is not dependent upon finding a 'sign.' The chocolate drip is not Mary, and God is not using this pile of chocolate to re-ignite your faith.

When people are fallen away from God, and not doing what the faithful ought to do - attending church with her son, and living a life of faithfulness and prayer, seeking God in His Word, The Bible - they'll get into all kinds of hooey-kaflooey. These women are sad, pathetic examples of faithlessness.
