World's Largest Cheescake Baked in Mexico


After the Daring Bakers Challenge of cheesecake last month, I had to share this article I found in the Professional Travel Guide.


This is just way too much cheesecake!

"The world's biggest cheesecake isn't coming from where you would think, like New York. It was baked in Mexico. And it's quite large.
Chef Miguel Angel Quezada says 55 cooks spent 60 hours making the world's biggest cheesecake — a 2-ton calorie bomb topped with strawberries.
The monster cake used nearly a ton of cream cheese, the same amount of yogurt, 350 kilograms (772 pounds) of pastry, 250 kilograms (551 pounds) of sugar and 150 kilograms (331 pounds) of butter.
And, lest you question it, Guiness has already certified it as the record holder for World's Biggest Cheesecake. It's the first attempt at this record, of course, but, before you try and make a run at the record, remember: TWO TONS of cheesecake. TWO TONS. That's not exactly something you can just whip together on a Sunday afternoon. "

Where do you keep a cake that big???? How do you cut it????

Wow...I think I will stick with my little cheesecake!

Until we bake again...

That is so interesting. I thought the cheesecake itself was the white thing in the middle, until I noticed the strawberry field around it.
