MANCHESTER, N.H. – A 1,224-pound triple vanilla cupcake with pink frosting has set a record as the world's largest.
The sugary behemoth was unveiled Saturday at the Woodward Dream Cruise classic cars event in Royal Oak, Mich.
A Guinness World Records adjudicator was on hand to certify the cupcake's girth. It was more than eight times the size of the previous record holder.
The colossal cupcake took 12 hours to bake and included 800 eggs and 200 pounds each of sugar and flour.
Slices of the cupcake were served in exchange for donations to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure breast cancer organization.
Ryan Abood, owner of New Hampshire-based Gourmetgiftbaskets.com who made the cupcake, told the Detroit Free Press that it clocked in at an estimated 2 million calories.[/quote]
Who's not on a diet? You? Then eat it.

Do you expect them to make [b]1 million cupcakes of that size?[/b]
2 million calories? Nothing a fat man can't handle.
pretty sure once a cupcake is that big it just counts as a cake then

gonna get into Guinness for growing the world's largest baby carrot (I'm just going to grow a regular carrot)
If i had to have diabetes this is the way i get it.
A cake that big can't be good, it probably won't have been baked all the way through for one.

There goes EP3, again. :regd09: [/offtopic] Anyways, I want one of those cupcakes, even though it will probably kill me with all it's sugary goodness. :pcgaming: :ghost:
There have been larger, Gabe just ate them all before anyone could measure them.
I believe at that size, it isn't a "cup-cake" anymore.
See, I was under the interpretation that cup-cakes were the size of cups, not my dick.
:-D
I am full of Cup-Cake and I am coming for you!
Cookie monster is not impressed.

Who was the previous record holder? Wasn't it Duff Goldman?
It's not a cupcake anymore... it's just a cake.

Duff's got revoked because it was made in two pieces instead of one and so they didn't count it as a cupcake anymore.

Oh, ok.

they don't make cakes that big
[QUOTE=gamefreek76;16759129]It's not a cupcake anymore... it's just a cake.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I think a cupcake is defined as a cake that's as small as a cup. It's definitely a cake.

Wait... he doesn't look fat in that picture.
:cool:
sweet cuppin' cakes!
I want one! but with 2 million calories It would rot a long time before I could ever completely eat it.
Sugar is a preservative. It would probably take a while to rot.
I say we send it to Ethiopia along with 300 gallons of water.
