Biggest Strawberry Cake!

Are you a strawberry lover? How about a strawberry buttercake? I actually never tried a strawberry buttercake before. It surprises me to see how big this strawberry cake is, and not only that it is made in the Philippines. Here is the scope.
A northern Philippine town is attempting to bake itself into the book of Guinness World Records with what it claims is the world's biggest strawberry buttercake. The northern town of La Trinidad, which calls itself the Philippines' strawberry capital, has been baking giant cakes for the last three years. But Mayor Nestor Fongwan said the town had outdone itself this time with the giant dessert weighing 11,146 kilograms. At 10 pesos (24 cents) a slice in the town hall, the massive cake was expected to feed 55,000 townspeople.
About 3000 kilograms of strawberries were used in baking the cake, which is 2.57 meters high and 2.65 meters wide, Mr Fongwan said.

Guinness World Records does not have an entry for strawberry butter cakes but organizers said they would seek a new category for their massive creation.

Strawberry from La Trinidad, Benguet is luscious and sweet! That cake done with strawberries must be very good! I hope it'll land on the Guinness Book Record.
