Guinness World Record has confirmed Nigerian chef, Hilda Effiong Bassey, popularly known as Hilda Baci, who broke the record for the longest cooking marathon by individual.
Recall that Hilda Baci last month, cooked for 100 hours non-stop, breaking India’s Lata Tondon’s 87 hours 45 minutes record of uninterrupted cooking in the process.
On Tuesday, the record body finally certified her as the new record holder for the longest cooking marathon (individual).
Guinness World Record tweeted, “After reviewing all the footage, we’re delighted to announce that Hilda Baci is the new record holder for the longest cooking marathon (individual)
“Following a thorough review of all the evidence, Guinness World Records can now confirm Hilda Bassey Effiong has officially broken the record for the longest cooking marathon (individual), with a time of 93 hours 11 minutes.
“The 26-year-old Nigerian chef began on Thursday 11 May and continued through to Monday 15 May, cooking over 100 pots of food during her four-day kitchen stint.
“Hilda attempted to set a record of 100 hours, however, almost seven hours were deducted from her final total because she mistakenly took extra minutes for one of her rest breaks early on in the attempt”.
