I can give you a partial answer.
In Islam imagery is considered idolatry. Muslims have no images of Mohammed, or Allah or any of the other symbols of their religion. Such imagery would be considered blasphemy.
Buddha is not a god--he is not worshipped. He is a philosopher who was considered a conduit to a more divine state. I don't know of any reason there couldn't be a chocolate Buddha, but I don't know whether it would sell.
I don't know enough about Krishna to comment. As far as I know Buddhists, Hindu, etc. do practice imagery and idolatry and would not find chocolate imagery offensive, but might be disinclined to eat it.
Unfortunately Christianity has been forced to accept all insults and persecution, but the Sermon on the Mount does address this. According to Jesus we are blessed when we are reviled and hated by men.
Remember, Christianity grew under the most severe Roman persecution, and in the end it prevailed.

Maybe not chocolate, but Jesus is the only deluxe action figure on this site.
Non of the rest get to be Deluxe, how unfair is that?

Jesus was naked on the cross, and only (some) Americans are disgusted by that.
Seriously, hun, it's in the BIBLE.
The chocolate Jesus was a powerful statement about where you Christians place your priorities on Easter....
The argument over what Jesus LOOKED LIKE on the cross (which was based on the Bible) just shows how screwed up you all are.
Oh, and by the way, some of the deities at http://www.chocolatedeities.com/ are naked, and not Jesus.

Because in America it is not acceptable behavior to insult any faith but Christian. Which is surprising when 80 percent of America claims the Christian faith.
My old minister called the Christian Faith a sleeping giant.
