MMM cheesecake

Mmmm Cheesecake….

On the breakfast show today PG and I discovered that a chef in Mexico had created, with 55 other cooks, a new world record by cooking the world’s largest cheesecake weighing 2 ton – it was deocrated with succulent strawberries too. This giant cake used nearly a ton of cream cheese, the same amount of yogurt, 772 pounds of pastry, 551 pounds of sugar and 331 pounds of butter-if you can believe that and it took 66 hours to cook. It was then divided into 20,000 slices and given out around Mexico City - ahh nice...

Now I don’t know about you but I love Cheesecake with a capital L and funnily enough indulged in some of the divine dessert over the weekend – it was chocolate – which to me is always a slight let down in flavour; I much prefer an original cheesecake lightly peppered with some kind of additional flavouring, lemon, blueberry or maybe even the American Cheesecake which is slightly thicker and creamier…ooh my mouth is watering… After hearing about this amazing feat PG has tasked me with the opportunity to find a new world record that PG and I can break live on The Peter Gordon Breakfast Show and that's where you come in. I would like to challenge you to think of something for us to do and we’ll attempt to create a brand new World Record based around your idea! I’ll keep an eye out for some kind of bizarre challenge as well – not too horrid though – and we’ll keep you updated as and when we’ve decided what to do - how exciting, PG and I might go down in the annuls of history.

Happy Thinking
