Chocolate Heaven

Chocolate Heaven
This piece is a celebration of the World’s most addictive food, chocolate.  The Aztecs were the first to discover the cacao pod and used to grind it to a paste and add spices to make a hot drink.  The art work doors depict a traditional cacao tree with a quetzal bird in its branches and an Aztec woman pouring hot chocolate into a drinking vessel to make it froth and foam.  The doors open to reveal more quetzal birds, chocolate moulds, beaters and representations of the Chocolate God.
