Chocolate seems to stir reaction even at the mere mention of the word. And chocolate is the word in Indonesia at the 2007 Jakarta Chocolate Expo. Cascades of chocolate varieties: milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate - tease and tempt visitors who never can resist sampling the calorie rich treat. Chocolate this year comes in all shapes and forms: from statues of former and current Indonesian presidents, to charming fashion gowns and accessories.

Chocoholics can lavish their taste buds with sheer delight, at Jakarta's three day chocolate exhibition. The event seems to have everything, as long as it's made of chocolate.

Get the idea? This is the highlight of the show. A chocolate house built from 15 hundred kilograms of dark chocolate, white chocolate, and chocolate rice and it's covered with chocolate icing.

And in another part of the exhibition: another chocolate fountain, where people can dip crackers and biscuits.

It's the fourth chocolate exhibition held in Jakarta. 50 companies with related products are taking part.
