They will be participating in the endeavour in an attempt to beat the Guinness record held by China,
The cake will be spread on 4,000 desks, along the road side on tables and desks, and will have a common base and vanilla cream topping. This will perhaps the first time attempt to showcase their culinary skills in the open with thousands of people watching.
The cake making event, is being organised at the famous Thrissur ground and adjoining roads by the Bakers Association Kerala (BAKE), in front of the general public. The bakers will ensure quality and hygiene in this record making event.
