On the last day of Expoacre, the legendary Amazonian figure of Mapinguari gained a delicious and innovative form: a chocolate statue, which was broken and distributed to the public. The sculpture, made with cocoa produced in the Acre region, was one of the most popular attractions of the Cocoa Rota space, celebrating the closing of the event.
