The Big Reveal: The Wooden Duck Was… CAKE! 🎂🦆
Gotcha! That hand-carved wooden duck you’ve been staring at all week? It wasn’t wood at all—it was 100% cake. Yep, layers of soft vanilla sponge, creamy chocolate ganache, and painstakingly detailed fondant came together to create a dessert so realistic, it had everyone second-guessing.
From the glossy “wood grain” texture to the carefully painted feather details, this cake was a true work of edible art. Even the beak and those lifelike eyes were crafted from sugar!
