World’s Largest Chocolate Sculpture

Florida based chocolatier Qzina has made an 18,239 pound replica of an ancient Mayan temple to celebrate their 30th year in business. The sculpture takes the Guinness Book record and will be on display from June 4, 2012 through December 21, 2012 when it will be destroyed in honor of the Mayan calendar ending. The mode of destruction has yet to be decided. I hope they blow it up, then it will rain chocolate!

Worse than that, Patty, these fools have moved 6 tons of chocolate to Mexafornia!

All they need is little 1/30 scale people to perform sacrifices.

Is it hollow? Creme center? We're hungry to find out.

At 18,000lbs I'm going for mostly solid.
