Valley View Casino & Hotel Presents 44 Pound Chocolate Badge to the SDPD
Representatives from Valley View Casino & Hotel presented San Diego Police Chief William Lansdowne and his team with a giant replica of a San Diego Police badge made from 44 pounds of pure chocolate.
The chocolate badge, sculpted by Valley View Casino & Hotel Executive Pastry Chef Daniel Sampson and his talented team, was originally created for and displayed at the San Diego Police Foundation’s 11th Annual Friends of the Badge Luncheon. Chef Daniel and his team spent a total of five days creating the solid 26 inch by 17 inch chocolate masterpiece. Chef Daniel used over 44 pounds of white couverture chocolate to create the badge and its accompanying stand. Then, Valley View Casino Chef Sammy Chatluang spent two days hand-carving the badge’s exquisite details. The chocolate was then airbrushed with aureolin yellow cocoa butter and dusted with real gold.
