CHOCOLATIERS at Cadbury's have been getting festive with their latest creation - an 11 stone chocolate reindeer.

The giant Christmas confection, which is made from the equivalent of 1,555 bars of Cadbury Dairy Milk, is the work of Cadbury World’s Donna Oluban and Dawn Jenks.

The duo took just two days to create their masterpiece which incorporates 70kg of milk and white chocolate, red lustre and edible glitter.

The reindeer’s crowning glory is his impressively large antlers which have been hand-piped to precision to support their own weight.

The chocolate reindeer, which was inspired by one of the festive characters on Cadbury's selection boxes, will be on display in Cadbury World’s Chocolate Making Zone throughout the festive season.
