The Qzina Institute of Chocolate & Pastry in California announced it broke the world record for the largest chocolate sculpture by recreating a Mexican pyramid.

The sculpture of the Kukulkan pyramid in Chichen Itza, created by corporate chef Francois Mellet, measures 6 feet high and 12 feet by 12 feet at its base.

Guinness World Records confirmed the 18,239.5-pound sculpture beat the previous record of a 10,736.5-pound chocolate sculpture.

Qzina officials said they plan to destroy the sculpture Dec. 21 to coincide with the end of the Mayan calendar. (UPI)

'나체지만 구두는 신었답니다' 대체 왜?

미국 캘리포니아의 퀴지나 요리학교에서 세계에서 가장 큰 초콜릿 조각상을 만들어 신기록을 갱신했다.

이 조각은 1.8m 높이에 가로•세로길이 각각 3.6m로 치첸이트사의 쿠쿨칸 피라미드의 모양을 본 떠 만들었다.

조각상의 무게 또한 8,164kg로 4,869kg의 이전 기록을 뛰어넘었다.

퀴지나 학교 관계자는 오는 마야 달력에서 인류 멸망의 날이라고 알려진 12월 21일에 맞추어 초콜릿 조각상을 파괴할 예정이라고 밝혔다.
