Chocolate Ferrari F1 Car Must be Eaten


Ferrari has sweetened their Formula One programme by unveiling this chocolate-made life-sized model of the F2008 racing car. Comprised of 2,000kg (4,405 lbs) of chocolate, the �project� began when confectioners melted chocolate a year ago and started making a small version based on a small-scale model of the F2008.

�The project started one year ago, just for fun,� said Luigi Liberti, president of the Scuderia Ferrari Club Napoli, �but then the Club Pasticceri Italiani started to get really enthusiastic and eventually it became a life-sized model.
They started melting the chocolate in 2007, at first copying a small-scale model of the Ferrari F2008, then getting the full scale model done using chocolate imported especially from Belgium.�

Everything on it is edible, everything including the red coating. The car had been on display in Sorrento, hear Naples as a display piece at a Ferrari owners� party. But today it is being smashed up with hammers so guests can eat it p. For just �12,000/ �15,900 you can have the exact same thing, a year from now!
