According to chocolatier, the author of the room, this is the only room in the world, which has its own smell. Meanwhile, the creation of a chocolate room is a bit like working on sculptures of ice. Working with chocolate is interesting and difficult at the same time, because strictly needed to maintain the temperature of 35-40 degrees. If the chocolate gets warmer it more quickly melts and loses its shape.

The details of the room show complexity and painstaking work, for example paintings on the walls made of chocolate. Besides, the room made in three colors that correspond to the main types of chocolate: Black (bitter), brown (milk) and white.

Before it was difficult to imagine that amount of chocolate in one place. In particular, for the creation of chocolate room Elena used 600 kg of chocolate. More than 50 different objects are made in full size: table with utensils, chairs, sofa, cat, dog, paintings, clocks, fireplace and even firewood in it.

In fact, it took two months to create this Chocolate Room. For transportation of its parts needed special transport with special temperature conditions. To see the chocolate room is possible until March 22, 2015.
