See the Nearly 50lb. Easter Egg - Tuesday, April 7, 2009 at 5:25PM EST
Berwick, Columbia County-
A holiday favorite will be devoured by hundreds of lucky people in Berwick Saturday.
The folks at Cookies, Cakes, and More in Berwick have put the finishing touches on a near 50-pound chocolate and peanut butter Easter egg. It’s nearly double the size of the egg they donated to a Geisinger cancer clinic last year.
Four members of the Bogart family spent hours crafting this year’s super sweet masterpiece. Jenn Bogart explained, “This year we’re going to donate it to the Berwick Youth Football League. They’re having an Easter egg hunt on Saturday. We’re going to take it over there and let the kids dig into it after the egg hunt.”
We’re told the egg will feed about 600 people. They say that it contains about 108,000 calories, 6,000 grams of fat, 90,000mg of sodium, and 10,800 grams of carbohydrates.
The Bogarts say they just enjoy the opportunity to spread a little Easter cheer. No word yet if they’ll try to go even bigger next year. | |
