Armenian sweet bread or as it is commonly referred Gata was credited with a Guinness World Record on Friday. The giant pastry that was presented near Swan Lake in Yerevan was 6 meters long and weighted around 369kg. The event took place in the scope of “Yerevan 2800” celebrations dedicated to 2780th anniversary of the foundation of the Armenian capital.
The feat was confirmed by a Guinness World Records officer Joanne Marie Brent who had arrived in Armenia for the occasion.
The Gata was prepared by a group of five pastry chefs led by Anahit Mikayelyan, representing Yeremyan Projects.
