Italian Chefs Set 440.6-Metre Tiramisu Record in London
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."
Meeting strict specifications of at least 8 centimetres high and 15 centimetres wide per Chef Carmelo Carnevale, the classic dessert is believed to have originated in Treviso, Italy, in the 1960s.
More than a hundred Italian pastry chefs have created a record-breaking tiramisu in London over two days. The 440.58-meter-long dessert used around 19,000 eggs, 400 kilograms of sugar, 128,000 biscuits and almost two tons of mascarpone.
Vad får man om man blandar 3 000 ägg, en massa mascarpone och lägger till 50 000 savoiardkex? Världens langsta tiramisu. Recordet slogs i London på måndagen, skriver The Telegraph.
