This 35-foot clock tower made entirely from chocolate blows my mind. It is simply so detailed, and at 35 feet tall, it’s a massive sculpture, never mind a massive structure made of chocolate!
It is a built-to-scale model of St. Stephen’s by artist Angelo Feduzzi, the same person who actually made the chocolate. It took more than 17,600 pounds of chocolate to make the tower, and it promotes a Christmas food festival in Macerata Feltria, Italy.
