Croatia set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title today at this year’s Štrudlafest in the village of Jaškovo, near Karlovac.
The event saw the creation of the world’s longest line of strudels, stretching an impressive 3,136.84 metres.
The record-breaking strudel line was made up of 8,940 individual strudels, with the effort supported by Karlovac County and the cities of Karlovac and Ozalj.
