Recommended Posts

Qzina Speciality Foods have found out on extraordinary way to celebrate their 30th anniversary. Its a mammoth chocolate pyramid which is not just unique, but they have nailed it this time by setting a new Guinness World Record with the structure weighing a staggering 18,239 pounds.

 

The theme chosen was inspired by Mayan civilization who were supposedly the pioneers in the cultivation of cocoa, placed it to a level where it could be called the "Food for the Gods". The pyramid is reportedly

a replica of the Kukalan pyramid in Chichen Itza,an archaeologoical site in Yucatan

The height of the piece of art is 6 feet and the base on which it rests has the magnitude of 3000 pounds,10feet*10feet.

For having an exclusive look at the awesome structure,one has to visit the Qzina Institute of Chocolate and Pastry in Irvine, California. The display will be starting from June 4,2012.

 

As a matter of fact, keeping in accord with the date when the Mayan calender meets it end, Qzine has plans to demolish the pyramid on December 21,2012.

Nice. The bad thing is, though, that it's going to be demolished. I'm sure that there's plenty of hungry people in Mexico, who wouldn't mind having this pyramid to eat. I bet if all Mexicans were allowed to come to US, then they could eat this thing in one day...
