World's Largest Chocolate Bar

I'm always Dying for Chocolate, but this might be too much even for me.  At least it was dark chocolate, although the amount of cacao was not mentioned.

Armenian company Grand Candy yesterday unveiled the world's largest-ever chocolate bar -- a 25-centimetre-thick slab weighing in at 4410 kilograms and measuring 5.60 metres by 2.75 metres.

In a televised ceremony, representatives of Guinness World Records measured the dark chocolate bar and handed a document to company managers certifying it as the new record-holder.

Grand Candy CEO Karen Vardanian told journalists the bar was produced in honour of the company's 10th anniversary.

The record was previously held by a chocolate bar produced in Italy in October 2007 that weighed 3580 kilograms (7890 pounds).
