From a platter of finger licking chicken wings to a bowl of Chinese noodle soup, these foodie snaps are enough to make your savoury saliva glands drool. But before you get too excited about a succulent slice of roast ham or a slippery piece of sushi, these savoury foods are actually made of cake. These hyper-realistic sweet treats were created by American baker Debbie Goard, 45, who sells her quirky creations for up to a few thousand dollars.
