The previous Guinness World Records' record for the Largest brownie was was 220 pounds, 7 ounces.
Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the largest cake decoration lesson; it was achieved by 1,293 participants in an event organised by Casino de Charlevoix in Quebec, Canada.
Owners Joan Scott and Gayle Hohman decided to attempt to break the record to celebrate their fifth anniversary of being in business.
When they realized how many individual slices such a behemoth brownie would produce — nearly 1,200 — they committed to also use the event as a fundraiser for Bay Area Food Bank's backpack program, The GulfCoastNewsToday.com reported.
Slices of the brownie were sold for $3 a piece, and all proceeds went to Bay Area Food Bank.
The project wouldn't have been possible without the help of two other local businesses.
Jim Haley at Fulton-Haley Metal Products in Bay Minette volunteered to create the pan, which alone weighed 262 pounds.
The huge oven was constructed free of charge by Bolttech Mannings in Theodore, which manufactures industrial bolting, induction and resistance products.
