The largest recorded baked Sakotis - Raguolis

The largest recorded baked Sakotis:

Don't know what a Sakotis [Raguolis] is? You will after you see this brief clip. A smaller Sakotis is a tradition at a Lithuanian wedding. The taste can not be compared and the technique of baking is over an open pit goes back centuries.

In the Ignaline Region of Lithuania, there was a grand opening of the first Sakotis Baking Museum. On this occasion visitors saw a demonstration of the baking of the Sakoktis and one of record size, the largest ever.

Saka [Shah - kah] means branch. Ragas [Rah - gahs] means horn. Now you can see how this "cake" got its name.

THIS is just a sample of what you will see in TV Broadcasts such as Panorama, Labas Rytas and more.
