Eggcitement mounts as Cavendish London invites two guests to check in and choc out

March 28, 2012 - PRLog -- When it comes to the ultimate Easter treat, The Cavendish London has it all wrapped up.
Today, one of London’s most stylish hotels has revealed the UK’s first edible chocolate hotel room.

Two lucky guests will be able to choc-in to the hab-eat-able room tonight - eating their way out at the end of their stay.

Neil Braude, hotel manager at The Cavendish London, says: “What could be more fun than waking up feeling a bit peckish and being able to munch your way through the do not disturb sign? Or taking a nibble out of the flowers?

“Easter’s not Easter without chocolate and we wanted to create an eggstra special Easter treat for chocolate lovers. The room will choc-up for one night only, melting away in the morning.”

Professional Chef students from Westminster Kingsway College have carefully crafted the 12th-floor room in the Jermyn Street hotel from almost 100kg of luxurious Callebaut chocolate.

Simon Woods, chef lecturer Westminster Kingsway College, adds: “With chocolate slippers, a life-sized painting and giant Easter sculpture, to name only a few of the items, guests will have pick of the room to unwrap and eat up before they check out.”
