While it was claimed that Gwyneth Paltrow was in the midst of creating a chocolate range inspired by her famous This Smells Like My Vagina candle… we can confirm that isn’t the case.
In a world where the actor’s lifestyle brand Goop frequently makes headlines due to its unconventional products, it might not seem like too far-fetched an idea that vagina-flavoured chocolates could be the next step.
Nonetheless, despite reports, it’s not true.
It was claimed that the 50-year-old A-lister had filed documents for the products, with the reported documents alleging that the chocolate range would be called This Tastes Like My Vagina.
However, a representative for Gwyneth has confirmed to Metro.co.uk that Goop is not planning on launching any products in the chocolate category.
Sorry to disappoint!

The Sun claimed that the the paperwork was filed to the US Trademark and Patent Office, with government attorneys reviewing the papers.
The outlet alleged that the application covered both ‘candy and chocolate’.
In 2020, Gwyneth left people a smidge baffled when she released a candle called This Smells Like My Vagina via her Goop lifestyle brand.
It went on to sell out on the Goop website and became a fan favourite.
Previously speaking about the candle, Gwyneth argued that it’s more than a candle, it’s a ‘punk-rock statement’.
Chatting to Ellen DeGeneres, Gwyneth revealed she made the This Smells Like My Vagina candle to challenge the idea that ‘women have been taught to have a certain amount of shame about their body’.

‘If you just light a candle that says This Smells Like My Vagina and put it on the coffee table, it’s kind of a punk rock statement,’ she added.
But back in 2021 one fan got a fright when said candle reportedly caused an ‘inferno’ in their home.
Jody Thompson had won the Goop product in an online quiz and claims that it ‘exploded’ with a 50cm high flame when she tried to light it.
A spokesperson for Goop told Metro.co.uk at the time: ‘We’re in touch with the woman to see if she followed the specific fire safety instructions included with the candle, such as trimming the wick and not burning it for more than two hours.
‘At Goop, we vet the products we sell and make customer safety a priority, so we’ve alerted the manufacturer to the woman’s issue and have also reached out to her to send her some goop products to help pass the days in quarantine.’
