Gus
Kazakos, owner of Opa Gyros and
Crepes, built a 300 pounds, 40 inches tall French crepe cake-setting the new
world record for the Biggest Chocolate Crepe Cake. The Biggest Chocolate Crepe Cake consisted of 120 pounds of flour, 140
eggs, 80 liters of milk, 80 pounds of chocolate, 40 pounds of bananas and an
equal measure of strawberries.
Nancy
Tratta a visitor from Braddock said that the cake was just too excellent as it melted in the mouth as it was slight and fluffy. Gus Kazakos built the tower
by stacking individually made crepes the size and shape of pizzas on top of
each other - all 510 of them. The Biggest Chocolate Crepe Cake have been taller yet,
but Kazakos decided
not to add the last 20 crepes to his wobbly masterpiece. As a
finishing touch, Kazakos stood
on a picnic table and emptied a can of whipped cream atop it. Then he engaged in a whipped-cream fight
with his daughter.
Kazakos unveiled his giant pastry concoction in front of 200 persons on
the Ninth Street Boardwalk.
He spent anxious moments stabilizing
the tower of food with both hands while vacationers snapped photos. Kazakos,
who grew up working in his father's restaurant in Drama,
Greece, said he set a sweet, albeit unsanctioned,
world record. He is charged about the idea of making crepe cakes and is
ambitious enough to beat his own records next year.
He asked the crowd if they were hungry and then sliced the confection into pizza shaped
slices to serve the visitors. The inspiration behind Kazakos
to have set such a master Crepe
cake is because he himself and his family are avid crepe lovers and that has something got him into create this gigantic marvel. Kazakos
refrained from adding the 20 crepes further as he feared that as the chocolate had started
melting the entire thing would come
down. Both Kazakos and his assistants
had been tirelessly working for a couple of days to come up with this huge
structure.
The Biggest Chocolate Crepe cake weighed 300 pounds and counted to 510 stacks measured
40 inches in height was s et by Gus Kazakos at Ocean City,New Jersey,United
States of America on August 10, 2008.
