Here in Toronto we might have the 'hotbed of culture' that is The Drake Hotel, but in London, England, they've gone and upped us with the 'Cake Hotel.' The first of its kind in the world, the Cake Hotel is a lavishly indulgent affair.
This hotel will be a dream come true for many females who want nothing more than to gorge on delicious cakes in a Marie Antoinette style sugar-crazed haze after a hard days work. The stunning hotel will treat you like a queen for the day: bathe in a bath of caramel-coated popcorn whilst you stuff your face with French fancies and macaroons. If you're still feeling peckish later, you can scoff the flowers in the vase, which are made entirely out of cake and icing.
This hotel is a quirky idea and one which is sure to be popular with ladies looking for an alternative to a spa break weekend.
