The cookathon took place in May, and the chef gathered her evidence and submitted it to the body in the same month.
She had cooked for 100 hours, according to her own records, but the Guinness World Records said it could only award her 93 hours and 11 minutes.
Giving reasons as to how it arrived at the conclusion, the body said there was a miscalculation in Hilda’s allowed resting time of five minutes after an hour.
