chocolate kitchen


Explanation:
I agree with both Amorel and Francis here. Without any idea of the time and the size of this example. Chocolate factory is well known, of course, from the children's book and movie, but for me, it brings across the image of something huge.

Thus my suggestion, a bit smaller in contrast but also a bit more general in nature.
