The Guinness world record for the largest crab cake weighed 114.75 kg (253 lb) and was made by Special Olympics Maryland in conjunction with Handy International and Graul's Market (all USA) in Hampden, Maryland, USA,
Guinness World Records also recognized the longest roll cake: 15.8 m (51 ft 10.05 in), achieved by the children who participated in Miraikko Carnival (Japan) and the organizer Osakafu Yugigyo Kumiairengokai at Namihaya Dome, Osaka, Japan.
500 people got the chance to devour the finished product — a more than 4-foot-long carrot cake made from natural and fair-trade organic ingredients.
"It's educational," Castano said. "The ingredients are out there. If everyone just did little things like this, we could make an impact."
The cake was one of dozens of exhibitions and activities at the fourth annual Garden State GreenFest, a three-day event co-sponsored by Kean University and The Star-Ledger and created to educate children and adults about sustainable living.
