I believe "Stariway to Heaven" goes for me, Marc. White chocolate, milk and dark chocolate ... uh, the agony of choice! Beautiful image!

Well shot Marc.
Keeping with John's comment, rotated 90' cw, could easily be a row of books. I like the sharp focus on #2 (although I might like to see all of "chocolatier" there too) and you've done a good job with the lighting the gilded letters - very rich looking without any blown highlights.
If I had to pick something to criticize, it might be the title vis-a-vis the shot. I'd expect the focus of the "ladder of the gods" to be sharp in foreground and then trail off into the distance (just my mental bias).
A very nice closeup shot.

John,
I was going to call this "stairway to heaven". The chcolate bars reminded me of stairs and the "God" is just a play on Godiva. Unfortunately, someone else all ready used the word "Heaven" in the title of their image and I just didn't want to cause confusion. ;-)
Thanks for the comments
Marc

Good choice of the two Marc. I like your use of DOF to focus on teh 2nd box/label and the composition works well. The blue background is nicely understated. The only thing is that, while I know Godiva is chocolate and we can even see the word chocolatier, these actually give the impression to me of being bibles (Gideon vs Godiva? ;^)). Maybe that's a Freudian thing that is not so inaccurate after all for your intention of showing off some worship-related catalysts.
