Naples is gearing up to smash the world record for the longest pizza after announcing audacious plans to bake a 2km long monster-margherita later this month.
“For the attempt we have custom designed five motorized wood-burning stoves on wheels.”
On Sunday, May 15th, a team of hundreds of pizza chefs from all over the globe will work for around 11 hours to bake the 40cm wide, 2km-long pizza along the city's seafront.
Over the course of the day they will use two tonnes of flour, two tonnes of mozzarella, 1,500kg of tomato sauce, 200 litres of oil and 30kg of fresh basil.
