The actual Blarney Stone is a piece of stone that was set into Blarney Castle, (located near Cork, Ireland) in the late 1400’s. According to the official site of Blarney Castle, kissing the Blarney Stone will give the kisser the gift of eloquence and he will never be at a loss for words. Incidentally, the Blarney Stone was actually named the most unsanitary tourist attraction in the world; eating these homemade No-Bake Blarney Stones should not pose a sanitation problem, but, depending on the amount of food coloring used, may require a quick check of the teeth.
