Easter Day - Chocolate and Eggs

Today is a celebration of chocolate.  I turn to the Guinness World records:

The largest chocolate Easter egg 34 ft in height made by Tosca in Italy in 2011.  It weighed 7,200 kg. and had a circumference of 64 ft.

The largest chocolate rabbit weighed 3,850 kg (8,488 lb) and was made by Brazilian company Senac-RS, for the city of Gramado's annual "Chocofest" in April 2014.
The most expensive chocolate egg (non-jewelled) sold at auction for £7,000 ($11,107) and was created by William Curley, Amy Rose Curley, Alistair Birt, Sarah Frankland, Melissa Paul, Rhiann Mead (all UK) and Suzue Curley (Japan). 
The largest Easter egg hunt consisted of 501,000 eggs that were searched for by 9,753 children accompanied by their parents at the Cypress Gardens Adventure Park in Winter Haven, Florida, USA, in 2007.
Similarly, the most entrants in an egg hunt competition is a whopping 12,773 and was achieved by The FabergĂ© Big Egg Hunt, as part of World Record London, in London, last year.
