WARNING: Graphic.

A MUM-of-two died after she fell into a tank of molten chocolate at the confectionery plant where she worked in Russia.

Svetlana Roslina, 24, dropped her mobile phone into the vat of sweet mix and reached in to retrieve it, but fell, and couldn’t get out, The Sun reports.

“She was minced, only her legs were left,” said one local source at the Sergiev-Posad confectionery plant in Fedortsovo, Moscow region.

Another version is that she fell in while emptying a sack of ingredients into the giant mixer.

“The girl was dragged in when she was trying to empty a sack,” said another local source.

The woman was married to Vladimir, and the couple had two young children aged under five.

A police investigation is underway into her horrific death.

A local resident said: “A young woman died at the confectionery plant in Fedortsovo. I live here and can see the plant out of my window. At 6pm there were police cars and a hearse.

“People are saying that she dropped her phone in the tank and tried to get it but was dragged in there. Witnesses say that only her legs were sticking out.”
