Pretty obvious, isn't it? Even the widely available retailer "Godiva" had a chocolate turkey in their program - for some inexplicable reason, they're sold out right now...

I dunno; I walked into a store today and mentioned to some salespersons that I don't recall seeing chocolate turkeys, the way everyone recalls seeing all those other chocolate shapes for various holidays, and they agreed. So, off to the HalfBakery!

I'm therefore not surprised that they actually exist. I just wonder why they don't seem to be common.

Perhaps it has something to do with the proximity to Halloween, and all that candy indulgence. [jutta], feel free to give this the mark of deletion, if you wish.

But a bun for brevity.

I think they are uncommon because they are not as attractive an idea as other chocolate figurines. A chocolate Santa is OK because nobody knows what a real Santa tastes like. A chocolate bunny is OK because few people eat rabbit. But a chocolate turkey would just be odd - bit like a chocolate pork chop.

Tastes like chicken.

Because we already have pie for Thanksgiving. mmm...pie.
