Celebration of Ahmedabad’s 600th Birthday with 850-kg cake

Ahmedabad lovers will cut a 230-foot-long, 14-inch-wide and 13.5-inch-tall cake of 850-kg weight to celebrate Ahmedabad’s 600 years. The topping will be about 200 artworks. The cake is competing for a place in the Limca Book of Records. The earlier record was set with a 216-foot-long cake according to Rahil Patel and Mihir Desai who are organizing the event.

The cake will be cut at Gajjar Hall near Law Garden in midnight of February 25.26 by prominent citizens of Ahmedabad with fireworks and 600 white balloons.

The preparations to make the cake began a month ago involving a team of artists and icing experts. The pieces of cake will be sent to orphanages, old-age homes and physically challenged people.
