FULL STORY
======================================================================

Xbox is pretty consistent with its collaborations to bring special edition 
hardware to the table. Earlier this year we saw hot pink controllers for the 
release of Barbie and a pizza-scented controller to coincide with the release 
of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem , but the company's newest 
collaboration is one you might want to sink your teeth into. 

To celebrate the release of Wonka on December 15, Xbox has teamed up with 
Warner Bros. Pictures to create a Wonka- themed Xbox Series X console, 
controller, and set of chocolates. The console takes the form of a 
Wonka-branded chocolate bar complete with gold Wonka branding on the front, 
and the accompanying controller is a burgundy color to match Wonka 's coat. 

These aren't the only elements of the collaboration; as a brand first, an 
entirely edible solid chocolate Xbox controller wrapped in golden foil has 
been created to go alongside the console. 

But this collection of goodies isn't available to buy, and in true Xbox 
sweepstakes fashion, the console and its accessories are only available as a 
prize for a competition being hosted on Twitter. To enter, you will need to 
follow Xbox on Twitter and retweet the Xbox Wonka Sweepstakes announcement 
which can be found below: Now that looks delicious Follow and RT with

The winner will also receive a storefront-style display for their console and 
a box of five carefully curated chocolates that offer a variety of Xbox and 
Wonka -themed names and flavors to sweeten the deal. More details on the 
competition can be found on the official Xbox website . However, this is a 
must-enter competition for anyone looking for one of the year's sweetest 
collaborations.
