Five Amazing Things Made of Chocolate

What if the world were made of Chocolate? In honor of Chocolate Fest 2012, here are some amazing things that have been made out of chocolate!

1. Chocolate Dress - Lady Gaga may prefer to wear a meat dress, but personally I would rather add this chocolate dress to my wardrobe! This tasty creation was made by the German bakery group Lambertz in 2010 for its Annual Monday Night Party in Cologne. The dress was one of more than a hundred fashion pieces celebrating chocolate.














2. The Chocolate Room -
If this were my room I would certainly eat myself out of house and home! From floor to ceiling, this entire 183-square-foot room was made out of chocolate. Seven artists used 611 pounds of chocolate to create the walls and decor, which was on display for Valentine's Day at a shopping center in Lithuania.










3. The Cho
colate Car - This delicious-looking BMW was just one of many hunger-inducing attractions at the 2010 World Chocolate Wonderland in Beijing, China. Don't eat and drive!











4. The Chocolate Mailbox - What better way is there to send a Valentine to your sweetie than in a chocolate mailbox?! This over-sized mailbox is made entirely of Godiva chocolate and is adorned with hearts made of white chocolate truffles. It was created for Godiva’s Valentine’s Day celebration in 2011 at its Fifth Avenue flagship boutique in New York City.

















5. Chocolate Shoes -
What is a chocolate dress without some chocolate shoes to go with it? These delicious fashion statements are the creation of chocolatier Phil Neal of the luxury West London chocolate shop, Theobroma Cacao, who wanted to combine two of women’s favorite things — chocolate and shoes. The edible shoes are part of Theobroma Cacao’s Erotique collection and are hand-crafted from Venezuelan chocolate.












Don't forget to attend Chocolate Fest 2012 on Saturday October 20th from Noon to 4pm at the Harrison Center for the Arts!
