Wedding Gown Cake

This wedding gown is delicious enough to eat. Literally! The life-sized bridal gown is actually made out of cake:

The six-foot edible bridal gown is made from 17 tiers of sponge cake, 22 kilograms of sugar paste icing, one kilogram of royal icing and hundreds of sugar pearls. It would cater for over 2,000 wedding guests. The cake was created by Donna Millington-Day, dubbed the fairy godmother of wedding cakes. She said she was inspired by her daughter's drawing of a giant wedding dress cake. Rather than dismissing her daughter's idea Donna decided to rise to the challenge and one week later the stunning ivory dress heavily embellished with iced flowers and weighing in at 25 kilos was finished. The wedding dress cake is being unveiled at the National Wedding Show this weekend in Birmingham.
