DBAHO Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 A NORTHERN Philippine town is attempting to bake itself into the Guinness Book of Records with what it claimed was the world's biggest strawberry buttercake. La Trinidad, which calls itself the Philippines' strawberry capital, has been baking giant cakes for the last three years. But Mayor Nestor Fongwan said the town has outdone itself this time with the giant dessert weighing 11,146 kg. At 10 pesos (24 cents) a slice in the town hall, the massive cake was expected to feed 55,000 townspeople. About 3000 kg of strawberries were used in baking the cake, which is 2.57 metres high and 2.65 metres wide, Fongwan said. The Guinness Book of Records does not have an entry for strawberry buttercakes but organisers said they would seek a new category for their massive creation. Plant City, Florida, holds the Guinness Record for the biggest strawberry shortcake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
