These fast food cakes will cause you to do a double take. Created by Jayne McCool, the deceptively decorated desserts look just like take-out meals from various fast food chain restaurants but taste much sweeter than you might anticipate.
From a bucket of chicken from Kentucky Fried Chicken to a McDonalds breakfast and even a whip-topped Starbucks beverage, these fast food cakes are clearly the creme de la creme. They make unique birthday cakes that speak to the recipients interests and are a certain conversation starter.
In addition to branded takeaway, McCool has done a variety of other junk food (such as M & Ms and Maltesers) and pop culture-themed confections. This includes Minion cakes and even an ode to Harry Potter.
