The last Guinness World Record we covered was when Cole’s Quality Foods designed a specially crafted, custom-fabricated pan to bake a 150-inch-long loaf of garlic bread that set a Guinness World Record.
This time it’s a 151 pound cupcake [photo] that was showcased last Saturday at the Minneapolis Mall of America. The 1-foot tall, 2-foot wide cupcake included 15 pounds of fudge filling and 60 pounds of yellow icing.
The cupcake was made by cakes.com, which is run by DecoPac. The Minneapolis-based company calls itself the world’s largest cake-decoration supplier and marketer. “This is a thrill and an honor for cakes.com,” company spokeswoman Jamie Miller said. Cakes.com gave away 4,000 smaller cupcakes at the Minneapolis Mall.
