0 Comments | AFP, March, 2008
ZAGREB (AFP) — A Croatian man claimed Saturday that he has built the biggest castle made of chocolate after working for 24 hours on his candy construction in a central Zagreb square, national television reported.
The three-meter (10 feet) high construction with six-by-two-meter base was made of chocolate bars from a local producer Kras.
The candy castle builder, Krunoslav Budiselic, boasted that his effort deserved a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Some 100,000 chocolate bars were used to build the castle, which weighs 10 tonnes.
After the castle was built its "bricks" were being sold as part of a charity event ahead of Easter to help disabled athletes.
