Rosa is given a chocolate machine working on Pin's on perpetual motion as a birthday gift. The machine can produce chocolate in any quantity. The next day, Rosa takes advantage of this device to get loads of chocolate. Krash and Chiko, passing by, ask her if she'd get sick from eating that much, to which she replies that she'll always feel good and plans to make the entire world out of chocolate. With that in mind, she sets the machine to the limit, flooding the entire valley with chocolate.

Trapped in chocolate chips, Krash, Chiko, Wally, Carlin, Olga, Dokko, and Barry start digging tunnels until they eventually meet each other. Chocolate slowly melts in the sun and starts flooding the tunnels. Barry manages to find a hole in the ceiling, but it is high to reach. KikoRiki are completely desperate, but Pin comes to their aid on a balloon. The crew starts looking for Rosa, and soon find her swimming on the bucket in the middle of an chocolate sea. After being saved, Rosa starts hiccuping and realises that she ate too much chocolate. Carlin tells her that it's all about moderation.

Tropes:

  • Apocalypse How: Class 0. KikoRiki Island is flooded with chocolate, though it's unknown how much else of the world did it affect.
  • Birthday Episode: The beginning of the episode is set on Rosa's birthday, though the rest takes place the day after.
  • Continuity Nod: Pin rescues his friends on a balloon he had in "The Big Race".
  • Bittersweet Ending: KikoRiki escaped, but their island is completely flooded with chocolate.
  • Girls Love Chocolate: Rosa's love for chocolate leads to disastrous consequences.
  • Percussive Maintenance: The chocolate machine starts working after Pin kicks it.
  • Shout-Out: The title of the episode is a reference to the film La Dolce Vita.
  • Sweet Tooth: Rosa was already shown loving sweets, but this time, she takes it even further, taking advantage of her addiction and accidentally causing the apocalypse.
