More than 400 students cooperated to make a huge cake in front of the Beiping-Tianjin Battle Memorial Hall in Tianjin on Oct 15 under the guidance of the Tianjin Volunteer team.

The 67- meter long and 0.27 - meter wide cream cake took more than three hours to finish. It was "S" shaped, and required 100 kilograms of cream, 50 kilograms of flour, 50 kilograms of sugar and over 200 kilograms of eggs. The number 67 was meant to celebrate the 67th anniversary of China's establishment. The makers of the cake will be applying for a Guinness World Record.
