Largest Hot Chocolate-world record
set
by Serendipity 3
NEW YORK CITY, USA--In celebration of its 55th birthday,
the Serendipity
Three
Restaurant
made a four gallons hot chocolate-setting the new world record
for the Largest
Hot Chocolate
.
Photo: To make the Largest
Hot Chocolate
,
the restaurant used 12 pounds
of cocoa powder, eight quarts of heavy cream and one pound
of fine shaved French chocolate.
Stephen Bruce
, S3
’s
owner/founder/Walt Disney lookalike mixed up the Largest
Hot Chocolate
himself, with a little help from kitchen
staffers, using the restaurant’s traditional hot chocolate
mix, only in slightly larger quantities: 12 pounds of cocoa
powder blended from 14 different cocoas, 8 quarts of heavy
cream, and one pound of fine shaved French chocolate.
The “ Largest
Cup of Hot Chocolate
” is being added to S3
’s
regular menu, and anytime it’s ordered, proceeds will go to
benefit NYC charities (no word on what the tab will run you,
but if their regular cup of HC costs $6 and this one’s 100
times bigger, we’re going to go out on a limb and guess it’d
be somewhere in the vicinity of $600).
