World's Largest Cupcake gets media attention


Paris Hilton has a new reality show (ugh..I won't even get into how vain this is). She claims to be searching for a new BFF. The show features contestants that compete for Paris' friendship. One of the events required the potential BFFs to jump into "the world's largest cupcake" in order to search for three plastic easter eggs. The eggs held information that pertained to the competition.

This event caught my eye as I am obsessed with cupcakes. Believe it or not I would LOVE the chance to jump into a giant cupcake.



How fun is this?!



The cupcake was created by Merengue Bakery & Cafe located in Monorvia California. The cupcake measured 7 feet tall by 7 feet wide and weighed approximately 8,000 lbs. The creation required 8,000 eggs, 4,000 lbs of flour, and 150 gallons of frosting!


If that is too much cupcake for you, Merengue Bakery & Cafe offers smaller versions. The above cupcake costs $250 and is meant to be shared with 75 people.
The bakery also provides larger and smaller sizes and different variations. More info at MerengueBakery.com
