A couple who ordered a cake replica of their dog found that it was so realistic they couldn’t bring themselves to cut it.
Anna Railton and Chris Smowton bought an edible version of their pet Arthur for a joint birthday celebration.
But when the life-sized whippet dessert arrived, the English pair described it as “uncanny”, and had to get someone else to take a knife to it.
“It was literally the same size and weight as my dog—twice the size of what I thought it was going to be!” recalls Anna
“It came in this genuinely ridiculous huge box and I was thinking ‘my god, what have I done!”
The impressive cake was made by designers at The Cake Shop in the Oxford Covered Market.
“I have ordered cakes from them before and they are massive legends who enjoy doing non-standard cakes.”
The cake was set to feed 30 to 40 people, and Anna sent over various images of her beloved eight-year-old pooch, but she presumed it would be just a normal cake size.

“It was so shockingly realistic.
“Someone else had to cut up the face. That I was not down for, and glad I didn’t have to do that.”

There’s no word about whether Arthur got a taste of his doppelganger dessert.
