In London, a new world record was set for the longest tiramisu ever made. The event took place over the weekend at Chelsea Town Hall, where one hundred Italian chefs collaborated to create the enormous dessert. Their achievement surpassed the previous record held by Milanese Galbani in Milan, which measured 273.5 meters (897 feet).
The process adhered strictly to Guinness World Records guidelines, requiring the tiramisu to be prepared and assembled live in front of the judges. The massive dessert was constructed using 50,000 ladyfinger biscuits and more than 3,000 eggs. The final length of the tiramisu reached an impressive 440.6 meters (1,445 feet), setting a new global benchmark for this classic Italian treat.
Mirko Ricci, who organized the London attempt, has a history with the tiramisu record. He originally set the world record in Italy back in 2017, although his record was overtaken by another Italian team in 2019. He described tiramisu as “the most incredible desert that Italy has exported” and explained that the decision to hold the record attempt in the UK was intended as a gesture of gratitude towards the country. The dessert was dedicated to the King and the Royal Family, complete with a golden crown placed on top as a finishing touch.
Throughout the weekend, those involved expressed pride and enthusiasm for their accomplishment. Ricci thanked all participants, saying, “This is a record for us.” Chef Carmelo Carnevale, who shared insights about the specific requirements for the dessert, noted that the tiramisu had to be at least 8cm (3.15in) high and 15cm (5.9in) wide to qualify. When asked about the qualities of a great tiramisu, Carnevale emphasized “a very good coffee, a nice and firm cream, and also a lot of passion.
