Her latest feat which has brought her the honour is a 100-kg vegan, measuring 6 feet 4 inches in length, 4 feet 6 inches in height and 3 feet 10 inches in width and is a miniature replica of the grand Milan Cathedral.

The traditional recipe for royal icing has eggs but to make it ideal for the Indian market, Prachi developed an egg-free product of royal icing (Vegan Royal Icing), in association with an Indian company called “Sugarin”.

Talking about her unique achievement with PTI from Pune Prachi said, “The planning and preparation took a lot of time as it needed about 1,500 pieces to demonstrate the Cathedral. I single-handedly piped every piece, and later, assembled those pieces in about a month.” Certification of my work by the World Book Of Records, London, is indeed a dream come true,” he said.
