Ukrainian bakers create 750-kilogram honey cake
A new Ukrainian record was set in Zakarpattya Oblast with a giant honey cake covering 23.55 square meters, or about 254 square feet, and weighing roughly 750 kilograms, or 1,650 pounds, local outlet Raion.Svaliava reported.
In Ukraine's Zakarpattya Oblast, bakers set a new record by creating a massive honey cake covering 23.55 square meters, weighing around 750 kilograms. The cake, which broke the previous record by 0.55 square meters, was showcased at a resort complex in the village of Suskovo, Mukachevo district. Record expert Lana Vetrova commended the cake's size and quality, stating that crafting such a large dessert while maintaining its standards was an impressive feat.
The baking process took two and a half months, with refrigeration proving to be a major challenge due to the enormous cake requiring large quantities of ingredients. The recipe alone called for 370 liters of sour cream. Chef Alina Ashykhmina expressed pride and inspiration in achieving this remarkable result. The honey cake measured over 12 meters long and around 2 meters wide.
The cake was then cut into portions and distributed, with some served to visitors and the rest donated to an orphanage and a residential neuropsychiatric care facility.
