Argentine chefs break world record by baking 11,287 pizzas in 12 hours

A team of 400 chefs in Buenos Aires has set a new world record by baking 11,287 pizzas in 12 hours.

More than 3 tonnes of flour, 2.7 tons of mozzarella and 88,000 olives were used during the cooking feat, according to organisers.

Bakers used 14 industrial-sized ovens, and produced six pizzas every minute.

The team also set a second Guinness World Record for cooking 11,474 empanadas, small meat-filled pastries, in eight hours.
