Just kidding!
The woman in the pic (above) actually made that amazeballz cake that looks exactly like Captain Jack Sparrow, aka Johnny Depp!
Lara Clarke is an amateur baker from Brownhills, West Midlands, and the cake she’s standing next to is not just a bust of the famous character — it’s actually an entire 5’5″ replica of the Pirates of the Caribbean hero!
She entered it into an international competition, and said this:
“The judges are probably more used to seeing three-tier wedding cakes than giant Jack Sparrows.”
Such sass!!
The most surprising part of this? It actually walked and talked!!
Just kidding — it’s a cake, it can’t do that! Actually, the surprising part is that Lara only started baking two years ago!
She said:
“All I’d really made before was some bog-standard banana cake in home economics. The first time I baked a decorated cake was for my mother-in-law’s 25th wedding anniversary. I thought it was rubbish but everybody else seemed to like it.”
Since then she’s done a 4ft (1.2m) Grinch cake, a motorbike and a cake replica of her mother-in-law. We bet she looooooved driving a knife into that to cut it for everyone!
HA!
The cake looks awesome, Lara! Fab work!
Now send us a slice!
Ch-ch-check out the full cake (below)!
