A dozen pastry chefs worked through
the night on the Largest
tiramisu, with an ice rink set up specially at the
fair in Villeurbanne near Lyon to keep it chilled.
The giant recipe used up 300 kilos of mascarpone,
60 kilos of cream, 192 of sugar, 180 of boudoir biscuits,
4.8 of cocoa powder and 12 kilos of chocolate.
Chefs also cracked in 72 kilos of egg yolks
and 108 of whites -- the equivalent of 4,000 eggs -- as well
as 120 litres of water, 9.12 of coffee and 18 litres of marsala
wine.
Weighing in at 1,075.92 kilograms (2,367
pounds) the Largest
tiramisu-- which means "Pick me up," or "Send me to
heaven" in Italian -- was officially logged as a new World
Record.
The French tiramisu -- which will be dished
up and sold to raise funds for charity -- takes over from
the previous Guinness world record for the Largest
tiramisu, held by Switzerland for a 782.4 kilo dessert.
