Pope Francis Presented With a Choclate Statue of himself at the Vatican

The Pope was presented with the unique chocolate statue of himself in the Vatican by a group of 20 amateurs chocolatiers on Wednesday Feb 05,2014

The statue was made with 1.5 tons of cocoa from Atitlan in Guatemala

Students on a course at the Accademia of Maestri Cioccolatieri, near Venice, Italy, spent four weeks creating the chocolate statue in the Pope's image.

The students picked the Pope as the person they wanted to make out of chocolate because of his popularity since he was elected the Bishop of Rome in March 2013
