China Builds A Chocolate Great Wall

China is taking on another of the West's habits, the love of chocolate and extreme candy displays. A "chocolate wonderland" is opening in Beijing this week near the Olympic stadium. It will include elaborate chocolate displays including chocolate versions of China's famous terracotta warriors and a slice of the Great Wall of China done in chocolate bricks with white chocolate mortar. The display will include demonstrations and tastings and will last for three months until the weather gets a bit too warm. The chocolate items will be displayed at five temperature-controlled indoor areas and two outdoor sites with names like the World's Chocolate Hall, Wonderland Theme Hall, Sweet Experience Hall and Sweet Shopping Street.
