This chocolate version of Letizia is very well done.
The Japanese made a giant chocolate sculpture of David Beckham in 2002 or 2003, here´s a photo of Beckham and the chocolate version in Tokyo:

Many thanks for the information which is, as you know, a little bit old.
It's very astonished to see media as El Confidential Digital To give informations yes gived six months ahead. Let us remember, immediately after the Sofia's bith, this information was yet publishing. In some thread, I don't remeber which, we were speaking about that, in particular about the fact that it was not a woman but a man choosen to help the Princess of Asturias.
May be, in this time, journalits don't have many things to tell about the Princess of Asturias, who knows?
But Fanletizia, many thanks again to share this information.

Doña Letizia will be named "Daughter Adoptiva" of Ribadesella
The Princess of Asturias will be named "Daughter Adoptiva" of Ribadesella in an event to be held in the Asturian town next December 5, official sources told Efe. Doña Letizia, who will accompany the Prince of Asturias, will receive this honorary title of the hands of the mayor of Ribadesella, Ramon Channel Shooter, representing the Asturian town where the Princess spent the summer holidays with his family.
The act of surrender will take place at the Municipal House of Culture of Ribadesella and is also expected to Princes open the seafront that is called Princess Letizia. The paternal grandmother of Doña Letizia, Menchu Alvarez del Valle, lies in Sardéu, small town council of Ribadesella, where the Princess is still going with her husband to enjoy the land of Asturias.

Many thanks, Fanletizia, for the news. I read in other forums that may be the Princes could be here with their daughters to show them - at least for Leonor - the beloved country of their mother. The idea would be possible for some people because in Spain Ther is hollidays the 6, 7, 8 december. But as the 5 th dember morning the Princes have an eveny in Gijon, it seems a little bit audacious to think that the Princes would go with theirs two little girls.
But : expectative!...

First you are right, this news was yet done just after the Sofia birth. Then don't you find that the Letizia's agenda is increasing?

Does the Spanish Royal family have patronages like the other royal courts? It seems to me that it would be an excellent way for Letizia to gain more and more solo engagements, and hopefully it would give her something that interests her to focus on.

not as such. the prince of asturias is obviously in charge of the prince of asturias awards activities, and the queen in charge of the activities for the queen sofia spanish institute or the alzheimer foundation, but there are no patronages as such. they "patronage" the foundations they create, basically, and have "interests" (letizia is taking up activities of childhood and culture), so are likely to take on activities related with the area.
although they don't patronage things, we can see them attending some events every year (handind out prices, for example), which is basically (with some differences though) what royal courts with patronages do.

I watched this video at youtube and something struck me.. She reads her speech up like she's still on the news, especially in the middle when she says "bla bla bla bla .... en esta cidudad". It's a bit strange I think .. I guess she hasn't gotten used to the speeches in her new role.

She is very serious at her speech. The thing i like about her is that she sometimes still is the journalist. She is probably always interested in everything hapening in the world. It must be difficult for a woman like her to be in the shade of her husband.
But at the same time i admire here for the way she does her work. She has her own style. I like that.
