Armenia Makes, Will Eat, World’s Biggest Chocolate Bar
Submitted by Michael Santo on 2010-09-11
Hershey’s may in fact be jealous. Armenia on Saturday saw a record
certified by the Guinness Book of World Records for the world’s
biggest chocolate bar.
Armenia’s World’s Biggest Chocolate Bar Weighs Nearly 5 Tons
The record for the Armenia’s World’s Biggest Chocolate Bar now sits
officially at 9,702-pounds. That’s nearly five tons. Guinness World
Record’s representative Elizabeth Smith presented the factory owner
Karen Vardanyan with an official certificate during a ceremony today.
Don’t worry, the bar is not about to go to waste. The bar, made by
Grand Candy factory to celebrate its 10th anniversary, will be handed
out in chunks on Oct. 16th, in Armenia’s capital, Yerevan, in Republic
Square. The bar is all natural, 70 percent cocoa, and 224 inches long,
110 inches wide and 10 inches thick.
You can see Grand Candy’s website here. For those who want milk
chocolate, you will be disappointed. The Armenian World’s Biggest
Chocolate Bar is reportedly dark chocolate. The previous record was
set in Italy in 2007.
