Have you seen this? I think this is the neatest thing I've seen in a minute. I mean the amalgam tattoo of Hello Kitty and Darth Vader on Geekstir the other day was cool, but this just takes the cake (pun Intended). The Executive Pastry Chef, Lynn Mansel, and his (or her, I'm not sure) team of 57 "pastry artisans" just constructed the world's largest wedding cake. They made it for the New England Bridal Showcase held at the Mohegan Sun Resort at the beginning of the month.
This cake is unbelievable. At 15, 032 pounds and 17 feet tall, this thing is three times the size of the cake that currently holds the world record. The cake team baked 700 sheet cakes and put them all together to build the giant cake. They had to use steel discs as cake boards, heavy duty metal pipes as separators, and two fork lifts to put each tier in place as it was finished.
The wedding cake can serve up to 59, 000 people. Can you imagine having that many guests at your wedding? I really don't understand why people go all out to have the world's largest whatever, but it's fun to watch. I wonder what they're going to do with all that cake?

Now we serve several individual different desserts with a variety of flavors of ice cream served over biscuit...
In my wedding, the last year, we used 5 different types of individual chocolate cakes with two different types of ice cream (rice with milk and cheese with red fruits)
It was a success!
