During the Cream Cheese Festival which happens annually in Lowville, New York, the brand created a dynamic dessert that weighed 15,008 pounds. The enormous cheesecake outweighs the previous Russian record holder by over 5,000 pounds to reclaim the title that the brand had previously had in 2013. To create the cake, the team cleverly used the [No Bake Original Cheesecake Filling](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheesecake-spread) to create the dish without having to bake or cook anything. The filling is over 13,000 pounds which is paired with the crust crafted from 750 grams of graham crackers, 250 pounds of sugar, and a whooping 450 pounds of butter.
