KLAGENFURT, Austria - An Austrian health spa is giving chocolate lovers a chance to take the ultimate plunge.
Bad Eisenkappel, a health spa in the southwestern Austrian province of Carinthia, is drawing visitors with a tasty new "treatment" - a relaxing soak in a tub filled with melted chocolate, Austrian television reported Wednesday.
Nina Sabitzer, a cosmetologist at the spa, told state broadcaster ORF the bubbly brown baths include cocoa butter, which she claims has restorative properties that include helping protect skin from wrinkles.
Although clients are encouraged to splash around in the chocolate, "we don't let them eat any - it's too fattening," she said.
