World’s largest cheesecake served at Cream Cheese Festival in N.Y.

An annual Cream Cheese Festival in Lowville, N.Y., hosted a successful Guinness World Record attempt featuring a 15,008-pound cheesecake.

The Kraft-Heinz plant in Lowville set the record for the world’s largest cheesecake at the festival in 2013, but was beaten by a team from Russia who made a 9,347-pound cheesecake in 2017.

Derrick Langdon, quality manager at Kraft-Heinz, said he and his team decided to smash the previous record at this year’s festival.

“If you’re going to beat it, might as well go big,” Langdon told WWNY-TV. “We decided we’re going to smash that record, make it almost twice as big as the last one. If they were going to beat it, they’d have to go really big. It was go big.”

A Guinness World Records adjudicator was present for the cheesecake’s unveiling and confirmed it weighed in at 15,008 pounds, more than enough to reclaim the title.

“This is just unbelievable,” Cream Cheese Festival Chair Jeremiah Papineau said. “To have a record in 2013, and to win the record again this year, it just shows how this community comes together, and we couldn’t be more proud.”

The cheesecake was sliced and served to festival attendees. The leftovers were donated to local food banks.
