Alta Lift Truck Services serves up world's largest cupcake

Staff -- Modern Materials Handling, 9/1/2009

What's pink and weighs 1,224 pounds? The world's largest cupcake! On August 15, Alta Lift Truck Services (www.altalift.com) volunteered the use of a Yale GLC155CA lift truck with a 15,000-pound lifting capacity to move the world's largest cupcake as it was inducted into the "Guinness Book of World Records" at the Dream Cruise Classic Car Show in Detroit. The event was held to raise awareness and support for the Susan G. Komen's Passionately Pink for the Cure. Steven Greenwalt, owner of Alta Lift Truck Services, said the company was proud to volunteer for the fundraiser and encouraged employee participation in the event.
