Chocolate Fukuoka Castle

January 28th, 2008 by James

A very cool way to celebrate Valentine’s Day:

The Hawks Town Mall shopping center in Fukuoka has put up on display models of Fukuoka Castle and the Nagasaki Kaido road made out of sweets.

A total of 287 students at Nakamura Culinary School in Fukuoka spent four months creating the models. They crafted them using eggs and marzipan with sugar and almonds to reproduce the finest details, such as roof tiles and stone walls of the castle, whose 400th anniversary is being celebrated.
