Baci’s culinary marathon has the potential to surpass the current record for the world’s longest cooking marathon, held by Lata Tondon of Rewa, India.
Tondon set the record in 2019 with a cooking time of 87 hours, 45 minutes, and 00 seconds. If Baci’s achievement is deemed legitimate, her name will be etched in history alongside other extraordinary record-breakers.
Hilda Baci put off her stove at 100 hours mark on Monday, May 15, 2023, setting a new world record.
As fans and followers around the globe await the official verdict, Chef Hilda Baci’s culinary marathon has undoubtedly captured the attention and admiration of the world.
With patience and due diligence from the Guinness World Records, she will soon solidify her place among the greats.
