NEW YORK (CNN) -- Scrumptious fashions, including a corset that melts in your mouth and pearls you can eat one by one, were unveiled this week at a special preview of the Chocolate Show.

The edible styles are part of a special exhibit featuring 12 dresses made in chocolate by famous designers. Dark, light and white chocolate are shaped into evening wear, jewelry -- even a wedding dress for the candy show.

Sponsored by Le Salon du Chocolat in Paris, the show is designed to let the public taste and buy chocolate products as well as view chocolate art and other exhibits crafted by renown pastry chefs from around the world.

The show features chef demonstrations and chocolate testings set to the music of bands from cocoa-producing countries.

The Chocolate Show and the Chocolate Fashion Show opens Friday and runs through December 1 in New York's historic Puck Building. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children. Call (212) 695-2475 for more information or visit the website
