Joe Wicks amazed by Nottingham baker's incredible lifelike cakes

It looks exactly like Joe Wick's famous chicken pie... but it's actually cake. Baker Dawn Butler has wowed a string of celebrities - and even royalty - with her incredible lifelike creations conjured up out of sponge, buttercream and ganache. Brian May, the Hoff, Prince William, the Queen, Les Dennis, Leslie Joseph, and now the Body Coach himself have been blown away by her realistic creations.

Mum-of-two Dawn, of Cotgrave, recreated Joe Wick's filo pastry topped chicken pie, along with a water bottle and scales for the launch party of his new book Feel Good Food. The book was also created in cake form for the event at a private members' club in London.

The 44-year-old, who lives in Cotgrave, said: "They left the design to me and I think they were expecting the book. I thought we could do a little bit more than that. Joe's chicken pie has been in his all his books so how could I not make this pie? I wanted to blow people's minds really."
