Would it be nice to live in an all-chocolate house?
It is
available for rent on Booking.com for the bargain price of €50, or $59, a night
and can accommodate up to four guests.
The
18-square-meter cottage, designed and created by artisan
chocolatier Jean-Luc Decluzeau, is located at the museum Cité de la
Ceramique de Sèvres. It is indeed incredibly cozy-looking, featuring a
chocolate fireplace, chocolate bookshelves, a chocolate chandelier, a
marbled-chocolate sink, and just outside, a chocolate duck pond and flower bed.
It is crafted out of 1.5 tons of chocolate.
The good news for chocoholics is that many of the items in the cottage are
edible. Guests will also have the opportunity to learn how to make the
delicious dessert in a workshop dedicated to making personalized mini chocolate
houses.
But you, like me,
may have questions about how this would work.
Can’t the chocolate house
melt? No, they built it with the AC on, and now
it’s in a glass house so insects don’t eat it either.
Are the floors made of
chocolate, too? No, the floors and bed
are non-chocolate.
Is there a chocolate bathroom? No
Will it be sticky? No, most of the chocolate house items have a thin coat of varnish, so you don’t have to worry about getting your pants dirty every time you sit down.
But what’s the fun of having a chocolate cottage if everything’s varnished? Don’t worry, there are some edible items inside, too.
