New record for a cupcake.  8 times larger than the past record.  1,224lbs!!!!

The triple vanilla cupcake with pink frosting took 12 hours to bake and included 800 eggs and 200 pounds each of sugar and flour

The maker of the cupcake estimates the marvel at approximately 2 MILLION calories.

I really don’t know what to say, in times of economic crisis, we have people who are making cupcakes to break records.  Is this a waste of time or just good advertisement.  Also, pieces of it WERE sold in exchange for charitable donations.

I guess things like this are what our country was found on.  I hope they had Garelick or Hoods on staff to provide an ample supply of Milk.  Anyone suprised that our glutonous country is the fattest in the world????  Perhaps they should have tried breaking the record for largest bowl of oatmeal or tofu pie or white rice and seaweed salad.
