Step into the Fifth Room, where golden ticket holders become city-shaping confectioners. Pick a chocolate shell, filling, and toppings—each representing a city’s qualities—and watch as your choices transform an animated cityscape. Shape your sweet, shape your city!
Step through the shimmering golden archway, and you’ll find yourself in the most whimsical chamber yet: the Fifth Room, a place where chocolate meets imagination, and every guest becomes a city-shaping confectioner. This isn’t just a chocolate-making session—it’s a journey into the very heart of creativity, exploration, and transformation. Here, the select golden ticket holders—visionaries and dreamers—are invited to concoct their own delectable masterpieces. This is no ordinary chocolate room: this is where your taste buds and your imagination collaborate to reimagine the very image of the city. Choose wisely – the animated cityscapes will respond to every creative choice you make. The Experience: Upon entering, each guest is greeted by a chocolatier-guide who introduces them to the six city flavours. Each flavour represents a fundamental spatial quality of the city. They are more than just tastes—they’re metaphors for the experiences and atmospheres that define urban life. In the center of the room, six booths await. Pick one door to enter to begin creating your sweet delight! Create Your City-Chocolate: You start by selecting a chocolate shell—the foundation of your creation, just as the city’s infrastructure supports its life. Next, you pick your filling from the six signature flavours, deciding which urban quality to bring to the forefront. Finally, choose from an array of imaginative toppings—each adding nuance and personality, just like the people, art, and surprises that enliven a city. Next, you take a seat to wait for your chocolate while you watch how the cityscape shifts and responds to your creation. Every combination of shell, filling, and topping transforms the projected city, visualising how collective choices shape urban identity. A Sweet Reflection on Urban Life: The Fifth Room is more than play—it’s an edible thought experiment about how our desires, values, and tastes collectively sculpt the world we inhabit. Every chocolate is a microcosm of the city, and every choice is an act of urban design. How will you choose to flavour your city?
