Well, if you like chocolate, you can have the key molecule to wear around your neck.
The proper name of the 'chocolate molecule' is theobromine, based on the botanical name of the cacao tree. The cacao tree genus name is 'food of the gods' in Latin. Other chemical names for theobromine include 3,7-Dimethylxanthine, 83-67-0, Diurobromine, Teobromin and even more. The molecular formula is C7H8N4O2. It is a very similar molecule to caffeine.
This model is a ball-and-stick representation. Unfortunately, .stl files do not have colour, but most desktop printers are monochrome too. Some post-processing with paint can jazz it up a bit, if you want.
Just attach a chain around two of the sticks (bonds) long enough for your neck, and you can have chocolate all day.
Recreated for Sinterit Lisa. Sorry no more details about printing, because I don't own a Sinterit Lisa to try it. But it'll be very light (Cura says about 2gm ABS).
The molecule is a nice size to comfortably wear all day. You can expect the print from Sinterit Lisa to just come out nicely, and be complete, because support is just not an issue. But if you want to bling it up a bit, you can spray or brush it with paint. Bright shiny gold would be stunning, and chrome would too.
If you want to try a filament printer, see https://www.myminifactory.com/object/45242, but it is very difficult even when printed quite large.
