A staggering 72,585 candles were lit and remained burning for about 40 seconds, ensuring that the previous record went up in flames.
Taking place at the Sri Chinmoy Centre in New York, a team of 100 people worked together to make the cake, individually place each candle and then light them with 60 blowtorches.
