A family of bakers rose to the challenge today by creating the world’s biggest scone - which is 700 times bigger than a standard one and takes 18 hours to cool down.The colossal cake weighs 26kg and measures 2ft in diameter and was baked at temperatures of over 230 degrees C in a mould specially constructed by welders.
The Hallett family’s creation formed the centrepiece of the world’s largest ever cream tea assembled at a tea-themed festival in Torquay, Devon. It was made from a 100-year-old recipe. Guinness World Records confirmed there was no previous record for cream teas - meaning that the Hallett family are assured of their place in the record books. courtest mail
