Celebrating spooky season, Cadbury World’s talented chocolatiers have given their iconic chocolate bull creation a seasonal makeover, which is now on display just-in-time for half term at the choc-tastic attraction.
Chocolatiers Dawn Jenks, Donna Oluban and Terry Collins worked their magic and gave the bull a BOO-tiful transformation in just a few hours. With the Halloween-themed chocolate additions, the spooky bull now weighs around 92kg – the equivalent of 2044 standard bars of Cadbury Dairy Milk.
Dressed to impress this trick-or-treat season, the bull’s costume was hand-crafted by the attraction’s talented chocolatiers, who worked with solid milk chocolate to construct the fang-tastic creation. Molten chocolate was filled into a giant piping bag to mould the bull’s hat and poured into a large plastic bag to create his cape, before being secured to the bull with melted chocolate. Edible green glitter was later added to his eyes to create the ultimate spooky effect. Finished with shimmering gold stars and lustre to complete the all-new seasonal look, the bull is dressed up and ready for a night of trick-or-treating this Halloween.
To add to the spook-tastic creation, Dawn, Donna and Terry hand decorated a selection of ghostly chocolate pumpkins using white chocolate, before hand-piping melted chocolate mixed with orange lustre, directly onto the sculpture to create a ghoulish glowing effect.
Adding a haunting effect to the scene, green and bronze lustre was dusted across the pumpkins to add a creepy glow, and spooky spiders with intricate detailing were added alongside as an additional eerie touch.
The terrifyingly tasty masterpiece will be on display in Cadbury World’s Chocolate Making zone until Sunday 30th October, as part of the attraction’s annual spooky celebrations.
This Halloween, families are invited to enjoy plenty of hauntingly good fun and entertainment at Cadbury World. Visitors can roll up to the spookiest show in town and be entertained by Freddo the Frog at his Circus Spooktacular stage show every day until Sunday 30th October. Guests will be astounded by the Great Fredeedo’s spookiest spells, howl with laughter at Freddo’s petrifying puns and be amazed by his frightfully fun tricks.
Elsewhere in the attraction, there's plenty to learn and discover through a self-guided tour of the attraction's chocolatey zones. Guests can practice their piping skills in the Have A Go zone and catch the talented chocolatiers in action in the Chocolate Making zone, before riding on the Crunchie Rollercoaster in the 4D Chocolate Adventure.
Diane Mitchell, marketing manager at Cadbury World, said: “Dawn, Donna and Terry have given our iconic chocolate bull a frighteningly good update, by dressing him up ready for the spooky season! We look forward to welcoming visitors this October half term and are excited for guests to see the Halloween bull in our Chocolate Making zone.”
With so much more to enjoy, including discovering a range of terrifyingly tasty treats in The World’s Biggest Cadbury Shop including the unmissable exclusive hand-crafted chocolate pumpkins, Cadbury World is the perfect destination for a Halloween day out.
