So Yummy And Good Morning America Break GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ Record For Most Cookies Iced In 1 Hour!
On Thursday, December 13, First Media’s So Yummy, the number one food brand on social media, joined forces with Good Morning America to break a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ record for the Most cookies iced in 1 hour. The team decorated a total of 1,696 cookies in the span of 1 hour, which is 527 more than the previous record of 1,169 set in 2015.
Good Morning America anchors and special guests were on-hand to help 50 volunteers decorate gingerbread cookies ahead of the holiday season, culminating in a surprise $15,000 donation from So Yummy to Cookies for Kids’ Cancer, a nonprofit committed to raising funds for research to develop new, improved and less toxic treatments for pediatric cancer. All decorated cookies were donated to local New York non-profit organizations.
“At So Yummy we are all about taking ordinary things and making them extraordinary. There is nothing more extraordinary than breaking a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title with Good Morning America, especially for a charity as important as Cookies for Kids’ Cancer,” said Rechter. “There were so many logistics that went into decorating this many cookies. It was truly a team effort and we’re thrilled we pulled off this amazing feat.”
After being presented with a donation of $15,000, Witt added, “For an organization like So Yummy to put their full weight behind our mission of helping to fund research for pediatric cancer is awe inspiring. The first step to change against a statistic as daunting as the number one disease killer of children is to create awareness. So Yummy’s voice is a virtual roar and call to action to get involved, and we are incredibly grateful.”
