Here Is Another Chocolate For Diana,
the world's biggest truffle,
created by the owner of The Queen's Head Inn, in Bromsgrove, Worcs, Gianni D'Aniello and head chef Chris Long spent five and a half hours constructing the truffle from a traditional recipe of chocolate, brandy, double cream and cocoa powder, evidence of the attempt, to mark the start of National Chocolate Week, it will now be submitted to the Guinness World Records so it can be formally verified as an official record-breaker,
for the technical and those wishing to make a bigger one, it weighs in at a whopping 253.9kg and made using £1,600 of ingredients, the mega sweet treat contains a staggering 433,330 calories and 22,941g of fat, the ingredients were all donated by local businesses and the truffle will now be broken up into into smaller truffles and sold to raise money for Birmingham Children's Hospital Heart Appeal,
Gianni, 41, said:'We are hoping to make about 2,000 smaller truffles out of it which should raise about £7,000 for the hospital, hopefully a truffle or two should really sweeten the deal for them.'
