Mumbai restaurant Sanskriti has broken the Guinness World Record for the largest imarti (an Indian dessert) in the world. It has also surpassed the Limca Book of Records.
The restaurant broke the record with a 37kg imarti with an average nine feet diameter. Headed by Gaurav Chaturvedi, and with support from celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoora, a team of 12 people took three hours and 48 minutes to make it.
Apart from this, the team made the largest jalebi in the world. They broke the record for the Limca Book of Records on May 3. The sweetmeat weighed 18kg with a diameter of nine feet, breaking the previous record of 8.2 feet. It took three hours and 53 minutes to make.
“It’s a proud moment for us and I’m very happy that the purpose with which we attempted this event is achieved,” Sapna Chaturvedi, founder and director of Sanskriti restaurant, said in a statement.
