Holiday Chocolate Wonderland
Our incredibly talented Pastry Team have created larger than life sculptures made completely out of chocolate! That’s right… chocolate! This year there are three incredible displays for you to feast your eyes on:
- Caribe Royale North Pole Express: A 32’ long railroad train made from 1,600 pounds of chocolate (in partnership with Valhrona and Republica del Cacao)
- Santa’s Magical Flight: Featuring Santa's sleigh being pulled by.. you guessed it…Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen and Rudolph! All hand crafted from 2,000 pounds of chocolate! (in partnership with Barry Callebaut)
- Jingle Bell Junction: A whimsical village for Santa's helpers. The tiny snow-covered homes, all made of chocolate, are filled with laughter and holiday spirit.
A very special thank you to our partners who provided the chocolate for these incredible holiday displays:
