GENEVA (CNN/CCTV) - Hope you're hungry because there is some leftover cake that needs eating.

A colossal culinary concoction is the World's Largest Cream Cake.

Chefs in Switzerland spent the weekend assembling the masterpiece -- a whopping 1,200 meters long. That's about 4,000 feet -- and nearly three-quarters of a mile of sugar, flour and cream.

Guinness World Records officials certified the cake as the longest ever, beating a 1992 record set in Belgium. The cake was to be sold, piece by piece, with proceeds benefiting breast cancer research.
