On November 23, 2013, on the day of the celebration of the 75th anniversary of Rahačoŭ Dairy Canning Plant, the only sculptural composition dedicated to condensed milk in the world was solemnly opened in the city.

The sculpture is about four meters high, which is an exact copy of a blue can of condensed milk, placed with a rib on an oval pedestal made of colored glass. A rectangular sign with the inscription "Here is a message for descendants. Open to the 100th anniversary of the plant. 23.11.2013" is attached to the pedestal. In turn, the entire sculpture is placed on a round pedestal made of brown granite. The author of the work is a monumental artist, employee of the Belarusian State Academy of Arts, Hlieb Otčyk.

It is the first object in Belarus of mosaic in glass, so far this technique has not been used anywhere in the exterior. It is a manual work, each glass element was cut and selected by hand, so the creation of the composition was very time-consuming.
