Dalek Cake Crated by Fan
A baker has created an amazing cake inspired by the Doctor Who villains the Daleks … and couldn't help calling it an 'EX-TER-MI-CAKE!'
The 2ft tall realistically detailed cake took 50 hours to make to scale and was based on the Dalek design from the BBC series between 2005-2009.
It's made from cherry chocolate, weighs around 20 kilos and even features fondant icing details like the 'plunger' weapons.
Makers say the cake was so heavy the base and head needed to be made from styrofoam or a forklift would have been needed to move it.
And being a typical Dalek that would have meant it had problems being taken up stairs.

Speciality online cake business 'Stacked' created the Dalek cake when manager Tenele Perkin's partner Martin came up with the idea for his birthday and put together detialed specifications.
"It had to be perfect - a true Doctor Who fan would have it no other way," Tenele, from Canberra, Australia, said.
"I wanted to make a Tardis, nothing too hard, fitted into my schedule, but no it had to be a giant Dalek.
"This cake was a challenge but ended up better than we could have imagined."
