What’s your all-time favourite food? 🤤
There are so many delicious foods out there that sometimes it’s hard to pick just one, right?
What we love here at Guinness World Records, is that there are as many delicious records as there are recipes in the world! 🥘🍕🍦
The Guinness World Records 2025 book has a whole section dedicated to mouth-watering food records, and here are just a few of our favourites…
Most varieties of cheese on a pizza
How many different, delicious cheeses can fit on one pizza?
On 8 October 2023, a group of French cheese lovers named Fabien Montellanico, Sophie Hatat Richart-Luna, Florian OnAir and Benoît Bruel piled a pizza high with 1,001 different types of cheese from ALL OVER THE WORLD!
Now that’s one record that will take some topping…🧀
Largest chocolate sculpture of fruit
This record-breakingly massive banana was made entirely of the sweet stuff by French chef and social media star Amaury Guichon.
In the picture you can see it next to a real banana – it helps to get a sense of how truly HUGE it is!
Could you eat the whole thing?! 🤯
It measures an astounding 66 in (167.64 cm) x 29.57 in (75.1 cm).
And this is not Amaury’s only record-breaking creation…
Largest chocolate sculpture of a balloon animal
Can you believe that this is not a real balloon, but it’s actually all made out of chocolate?! 🍫
This delicious artwork of a balloon dog was made entirely from chocolate and sprayed pink with a cocoa butter and colourant mix.
It measured 1.60 m x 1.62 m (5.24 ft x 5.31 ft)…
Are you as tall as the balloon dog? 👀
Most expensive French fries (chips)
Do you love French fries? 🍟
Well, you would definitely love these French fries…
Valued at $200 US dollars, this dish provides a unique and delicious French fry experience.
That’s more expensive than your favourite pair of sports shoes! 👟
They’re served with black truffle, a Mornay dipping sauce and dusted with 23-karat gold at the New York eatery Serendipity3.
Yes, you read that right – dusted with GOLD. 🤑
Largest beef wellington
Two famous chefs, Nick DiGiovanni (USA) and Gordon Ramsay (UK), have teamed up to create a beef wellington that weighs in at an astonishing 25.76 kg (56.79 lb).
That’s over 18 times LARGER than a regular beef wellington, and it weighs about as much as an 8-year-old boy. 😮
How many days would it take you to eat it all?!
Largest doughnut cake
What is your favourite sweet treat? 🍩
Nick DiGiovanni has set another awesome record, this time teaming up with Lynn "Lynja" Davis (Japan).
The delicious creation took them 8 hours to make, and it is as big as 1,500 regular doughnuts.
But why doughnut cake?
“[It is] a perfect harmony of doughnut and cake: two of the best foods in the entire world,” said Nick.
Well, we cannot argue with that!
