QR Code Chocolate

whitechoc.gif Nippon COMSYS Corporation and Mary's Chocolate co-developed a technology for printing 2D barcodes (QR Code) on the surface of chocolates, reports RFID Japan.

"This technology could be used to allow consumers to access a website by taking a picture of a chocolate using their mobile phones".

At the moment, QR codes can only be printed on white chocolates. Note that QR codes themselves are also made of chocolate.
