Free chocolate!
And the country with the world's biggest chocolate bar is ... Armenia!
When one thinks of the world centres in the art of chocolate-making the countries that spring to mind are Belgium and Switzerland.
But Armenia?
The tiny country sandwiched between Turkey, Azerbaijan, Iran and Georgia has just produced the world's biggest chocolate bar.
The Grand Candy factory in Yerevan, the capital of the former republic of the Soviet Union, has just unveiled the 9,702 lb monster.
Guinness World Record's representative Elizabeth Smith presented the factory owner Karen Vardanyan with an official certificate during a ceremony today.
She said she was glad to witness what she described as an 'incredible event'.
Ms Vardanyan said that the chocolate bar was produced to mark the tenth anniversary of the company. The previous record was set in Italy in 2007.
The bar, containing cocoa beans from Ghana, is 224in long, 110in wide and 10in thick.
It will be divided up and handed out to members of the public next month.

Chocolate Covered Garlic
Peel and separate 20 cloves of garlic.
Place garlic cloves in a small pan of water and boil until tender, about 6 minutes.
Drain garlic, pat dry, and set aside.
Melt 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate in microwave. Add 1 tsp. shortening to melted chocolate. Stir well.
Dip each garlic clove in melted chocolate, place on wax paper.
Sprinkle with chopped pecans. Refrigerate until firm. Place in candy cups, and enjoy!
Note: For true Garlic die-hard fans and a real 'garlic bite', do not boil the garlic cloves.
