Located in London's Potters Field Park, Dr Oetker devised a delicious and engaging [brand activation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oneday-activation) in the form of a [giant chocolate-made edible installation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghirardellis-sampling-event). Made by specialist baker Juliet Sear over a period of 110-hours, the edible installation used more than 3,000 bars of Dr Oetker's Fine Cooks’ chocolate.

While the Dr Oetker edible installation was admired by passersby, brand ambassadors were on hand to dole out cupcakes. The day after the activation ran in London, it debuted in Manchester.

Coffee brand [Greggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greggs-cafe) also recently hosted a playful activation at Potters Fields Park that invited consumers to take a nap in over-sized coffee cup pods.

The intriguing event proves that brand's of all kinds can succeed in creating engaging publicity stunts with awe-inspiring public displays.
