A record-breaking tower of chocolate is making eyes bulge and mouths water in Dubai International Airport. 

The 44-foot replica of the city's Burj Khalifa tower was made out of 4,200 kg of Belgian chocolate, and took 1,050 hours to assemble. 

It's the product of Maltese food artist Andrew Farrugia, and was created to mark UAE National Day. 

The monumental edible will be on display for two weeks - let's hope the airport air conditioning holds up.
