Food.Fun.Stuff: World’s Largest Cupcake

[ 0 ] August 17, 2009 |

1,224 lbs., 800 eggs, 200 lbs. flour, 200 lbs. sugar and 12 hours baking time…what is all this?? This is what is now the World’s Largest Cupcake. The 1,224 lb. cupcake was unveiled Saturday in Michigan which is 8 times the size of the previous record holder. Ryan Abood, owner of Gourmetgiftbaskets.com, is responsible for this gigantic creation. People could get a piece of the cupcake for a small donation to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure breast cancer organization (*We love a good cause!). We think it’s humanly impossible to consume such a cupcake but if one did try his/her luck, they would be taking in an estimated 2 million calories (*That’s right, 2 mil).
