The Guinness World Records today, Tuesday declared Hilda Effiong Bassey aka Hilda Baci the new record holder for the longest cooking, cook-a-thon, by an individual.

The Guinness World Record in a statement on its website, had this to say; 

“Following a thorough review of all the evidence, Guinness World Records can now confirm that Hilda Effiong Bassey, better known as Hilda Baci, has officially broken the record for the longest cooking marathon (individual), with a time of 93 hours 11 minutes.”

Hilda Effiong Bassey a 26-year-old Nigerian chef began cooking on Thursday the 11th of May, 2023 and continued through to Monday the 15th of May, 2023. Over 100 pots of food were prepared by her, within the four-day in the kitchen.

Despite Hilda's attempt to set a record of 100 hours, the Guinness Book of World Records deducted seven hours from the total 100 hours she spent cooking because she erroneously took extra minutes off, for her resting period, early on in the attempt.
