On Saturday 16 April I was in Cortenuova in Italy to witness a Guinness World Records attempt for the presentation of the largest chocolate Easter egg. The egg was being made by a company called ‘Tosca’ and the venue was ‘Le Acciaierie’, a huge shopping centre.On my arrival the General Manager of the shopping centre wasted no time, taking me immediately to see the egg. A crowd had already started to gather, keen to find out if this was in fact the largest chocolate Easter egg. It was an impressive sight, but in order to be sure I began making the necessary measurements.[image]In order to qualify as a new Guinness World Records achievement, the egg would have to beat the existing record, held in Brazil, which weighed 6,440 kg, measured 4.2 metres in height, and had a circumference of 6 metres.
