BUCHAREST (AFP) – Bucharest set a new record Sunday for the world's heaviest cake, weighing in at 281 kilogrammes (619 pounds), after two other bids this week for the longest sausage and biggest Christmas give-away.
The cake, which was covered with fruit and whipped cream and decorated with the Romanian and European Union flags along with the words "Happy New Year 2009", was commissioned by the city for the annual winter festivities.
