A “crazy” cake of Traitors presenter Claudia Winkleman has gone viral on TikTok for its striking features complete with Tic Tacs for teeth and black icing for her famous hairstyle. Keith Scovell, 55, who lives in Kentish Town in north west London, is the creator behind the cake and has made caricature-style creations of various celebrities including US President-elect Donald Trump, British band Oasis, and the King and Queen.
The HR consultant said he enjoys seeing “people smile and laughing” and loves cakes with “auras” that look “off-beat”. The amateur baker has been making his unique cakes since before the coronavirus pandemic, but only started posting his creations on social media at the end of last year.
His videos have been a hit with social media users, with his most recent Winkleman creation earning nearly 200,000 views and more than 30,000 likes – and counting – on TikTok. Mr Scovell told the PA news agency: “I love Claudia, by the way, and I love the Traitors; I can’t get enough of it.
“I thought, actually, how characteristic her face is – the hair, the eyes, the smile – and then I just thought, actually, could I recreate that?”. “My cakes, to be honest with you, they’re just my imagination going a bit crazy.”. The cake features an abnormally large mouth spanning the width of Winkleman’s face, with stark white teeth made of Tic Tacs, and thick black icing to create both her famous fringe haircut and the dark eyeliner around her eyes.
