One hundred Italian chefs used 50,000 ladyfinger biscuits and more than 3,000 eggs to top the previous record, Guinness World Records said.

  • On Saturday and Sunday, 100 Italian chefs gathered at Chelsea Town Hall in London to set a new Guinness World Record, creating a tiramisu measuring 440.6 metres .
  • Surpassing the previous 273.5 metres record held by Milanese Galbani, the team used 50,000 ladyfinger biscuits and more than 3,000 eggs to assemble the dessert live on site.
  • Organizer Mirko Ricci, who previously led a record-breaking team in 2017, said the chefs held the attempt in the United Kingdom as a gesture of gratitude, calling it "the most incredible desert that Italy has exported."
  • Dedicated to the King and the Royal Family, the pudding featured a golden crown on top and the King's personal monogram, decorated with the phrase "Grazie your majesty."
