With tonnes of flour and apples, a Croatian village made it into the Guinness World Records with a line of strudels stretching more than 3km.
Two tonnes of flour and three tonnes of apples were used for the world’s longest line of strudels – baked pastry desserts – in the small village of Jaskovo, organisers said.
During the village’s traditional Strudelfest, the strudels, made following a regional recipe, were laid in line by locals and volunteers.
“Strudel is a symbol linked with local tradition,” regional mayor Martina Furdek Hajdin said, adding that such events helped boost the rural region’s development.
The strudels used to break the record will be donated to various institutions, organisations and people in need.
Jaskovo, 66km southwest of Zagreb, already claimed the world record a decade ago. On that occasion, it recorded a 1,479-metre line of strudels.
