Introduction
A crazy innovative and memorable activity that requires a steady hand and nerve. Teams represent a country of their choice, they must build a land mark building either of their own design or an existing structure from their chosen country constructed entirely out of chocolate.
Event Outline
A foodie icebreaker challenge starts the day followed by a demonstration equipping the teams with the skills they need to accomplish the task.
Points are awarded for tower height, (record is 852mm but failed miserably in the firing range), resistance, creativity and presentation. Extra points are awarded for convincing accents in the presentations.
Firing Range, each team arms themselves with projectiles to destroy the opposing team’s towers. The last one standing is awarded additional points, we will provide containers for the teams to take home the cooking chocolate if they wish.
