Chocolatier artists have created the life-size sculpted bust of King Charles III as part of preparations for his coronation in the UK from May 6-8.

To make it, the Slough, England-based chocolatiers required approximately 3.7 gallons (17 liters) of chocolate weighing 50 pounds (23 kilograms).

To detail the King’s medals and shoulder pads, the chocolate masters used Mars Wrigley products such as Snickers, Twix, Galaxy and Bounty Celebrations mini bars among others, and Maltesers Teasers for the collar.
