World’s Largest Chocolate

The holidays' high is still lingering, and I know your system is still loaded with all the good (but not necessarily healthy) stuff!

New Year means new anything. Case in point: new world record.

In Ooty,  a hilly tourist town in Tamil Nadu India, a chocolatier, named Fazloor Rahman, of NPS Supermarket, has set a new world record for the longest home-made milk chocolate bar.  The record-setting bar measures 18 meters in length and 0.75 meter in width.  That beats the previous record made last March by an Italian confectionary which measured 14.87 meters long and 0.75 meter wide.

Recently, one of Italy's well known chocolatiers, Mirco Della Vecchia, formed his creation from white chocolate.

His project was to sculpt and display famous tourist destinations from around the world.
