| This contest is fueled by the following news: |
| Builders in the German town of Gernrode, which is located in the Harz Mountains, have announced that they are nearing completion of the world's largest cuckoo clock made out of chocolate. The Halloren Chocolate factory, in Gernrode -- which is the oldest city in Germany -- together with the Harz Clock Factory indicated that they hoped to have the clock completed by the weekend. When done, the clock will be nine feet and two inches tall and a wooden frame. The casing will be made entirely of 265 pounds of pure chocolate. In the end, the clock is to be sold off in pieces for a charity during a festival on Sunday. |
