....don't think they can find a single giant mould. Anyway, it's
all for fun and a little bit of charity.
SINGAPORE - Ang Mo Kio (AMK) Hub secured the
record for "The Largest Taiyaki Display" in the Singapore Book of
Records for its 6m by 8m display.
The display, which was made up of 5,555 pieces of Taiyaki,
took 21 people approximately 31.5 hours to complete.
Officiated by Mr Seng Han Thong, Member of Parliament for Ang Mo
Kio GRC, the record breaking event is the fifth
consecutive time that the mall made a successful entry
into the Singapore Book of Records.
Together with Mr Lim Kok Guan from Mercatus Co-operative Ltd and
Ms Christine Lee from SIN Fish, they marked the launch by playing
the last three pieces of Taiyaki on the display.
The display was showcased at the launch of the mall's
fifth anniversary celebration on Saturday, September 1.
With a donation of $5, shoppers were given the opportunity to
try their hand out at making Taiyaki at the Taiyaki-making workshop
which kicked off on September 1 and will be ongoing until September
9.
All proceeds from the Taiyaki-making workshop and the
Taiyaki sale on Saturday will go towards The Woodbridge
Hospital Endowment Fund.
"The strong support we have been receiving over the years for
our record-breaking efforts is heartening, and we look forward to
organising more such events in future," said Mr Andy Kau, Centre
Director of AMK Hub.
