var block *pem.Block
var pemByte []byte

block, pemByte = pem.Decode([]byte(pemData))

pemCertsByte := append(block.Bytes, pemByte...)

c, err := x509.ParseCertificates([]byte(pemCertsByte))

fmt.Printf("%v", c, err)
}

This solution seems to work but I don"t think it is the best one :

package main

 import (
     "crypto/x509"
     "fmt"
     "encoding/pem"
     "bytes"
 )


 func main() {

 var pemData = `
