OUT OF THIS WORLD PLANET CAKES

Complete with core, mantle and crust, these incredible planet cakes are truly out of this world. With a level of detail usually reserved for globes in a classroom, it’s hard to believe that these replicas of Earth and Jupiter are completely edible. Baker Rhiannon Michell, rose to the challenge when her school teacher sister, Sarah, asked her to create a delicious science model for her class to enjoy. The 26-year-old, from Melbourne, Australia, said: “At first I was fairly sure there was no way I could make it, but then my inability to admit defeat kicked in and I had to find a way to do it.”
