World’s biggest Snickers bar created for Super Bowl

WACO, Texas — The largest chocolate nut bar ever created was unveiled at the Mars Wrigley plant in Waco, Texas on Thursday.

The gargantuan candy bar is 12 feet long, 24 inches high, 26 inches wide, and weighs more than two tons, getting the Snickers bar into the Guinness World Record book.

The requirements for a chocolate nut bar to make it into the esteemed record book are: it must be 80 percent chocolate and nuts and fit for human consumption.

The chocolate nut bar had to weigh at least 220 pounds for the record. With the new bar weighing in at 4,728 pounds, it's the biggest bar yet, proving everything is bigger in Texas.

The Snickers bar was built by Mars Wrigley associates using the same classic ingredients found in every snickers bar, including milk chocolate, nougat, caramel and peanuts.

The company created the giant candy bar for the Super Bowl. The Snickers will appear in a Super Bowl commercial on Feb. 2.

After that, it will be given to Mars employees across the country.
