Barcelona bakers boast giant chocolate Messi figure for Easter

To celebrate Easter, a Barcelona cake shop made a giant chocolate replica of football star Lionel Messi in the form of a Playmobil figure, standing alongside Portuguese player Cristiano Ronaldo, also made of chocolate.

The figures contain almost 80 kilos of chocolate, are 120 centimetres tall, and are said to have taken one week to prepare at the Escriba cake shop in Barcelona.

Assisting in the presentation of the figures was ex-football player Julio Salinas, and the Barcelona club’s ex-president Joan Gaspart.
