King Charles's Coronation is fast approaching and lots of people have been coming up with interesting ways to celebrate.

There's been a new crown emoji created for the big occasion, the carriage the King will travel in has been upgraded and there will also be a concert featuring some of music's biggest stars.

However, a team of chocolatiers and model makers from the confectionery firm Mars Wrigley's take the top prize for coming up with one of the wackiest ways to celebrate the Coronation.

They've created a life-sized bust of the King made from more than 17 litres of melted chocolates.

The bust weighs more than 23kg and took four weeks to create. It was carefully designed by the expert team to make the profile view of Charles look as close as possible to the image of him which will soon grace stamps, coins and bank notes.

The sculpture features the same uniform Charles is expected to wear at the Coronation, with mini chocolates used to add in some of the fine details including the King's medals.

The piece was made using around 2,875 melted chocolates.

This chocolate bust isn't the only visual masterpiece that's also good enough to eat. Check out these other chocolate-inspired items!

A Portuguese chocolatier made a life-sized statue of the footballer Cristiano Ronaldo.

The forward, who joined a new football team at the end of last year, was made entirely out of chocolate - yummy.

Jorge Cardoso who created the life sized sculpture spent around 200 hours on the model which ended up standing at a huge 1.87 metres tall and weighing around 120kg.

King Charles and Ronaldo aren't the only famous faces to have been made out of chocolate.

Look at this life-sized replica of Pope Francis!

It was made by chocolate artist Mirco Della Vecchia and took 1.5 tonnes of chocolate to make.

One artist got especially creative and made an old-fashioned vinyl record out of chocolate.

Not only is it edible - it can also play music!

It was made by Prudence Statie, an artist who makes pieces of art and sculptures which can be eaten.

A six-foot tall Thomas the Tank Engine made entirely from chocolate went on display at King's Cross station in London in 2017.

The chocolate Thomas weighed a whopping 140 kilograms (kg) and took 250 hours to build by three chocolatiers.

A total of 100kg of chocolate was used to create the masterpiece, which is about the same as 50,000 chocolate buttons.

That includes 60kg of milk chocolate, 30kg of dark chocolate, 10kg of white chocolate and 25kg of cocoa butter - that's a choco-lot of cocoa!

Chocolatiers and fashion designers collaborated to bring dresses made of chocolate to a Brussels catwalk.

Designer Giovanni Biasiolo used 8 kg of chocolate to make the dress to celebrate Belgium, the home of chocolate.

Fourteen different creations were on display at the annual "Salon du Chocolat" fair.
