In an endeavor to celebrate JK Rowling's birthday last month (the Harry Potter author shares a birthday -- July 31 -- with the titular character), a group calling themselves the Birthday Mischief Managed created this incredibly detailed Hogwarts cake.
Instead of replicating the Scottish castle as depicted in the blockbuster movie series, the dessert instead resembles the magic school's kitchen. A house elf (likely Doby as evidenced by the piled hats and scarf and the unwillingness of indentured elves to wear such clothing) stands amongst a cluttered kitchen scene. The brick-mimicking backdrop indicates the basement while the positioning of food shows magical qualities. This includes a bottle positioned mid-air. The intricate detail of the Hogwarts cake is truly astounding.
