Prince George Is so Adorable You Could Just Eat Him up.
That’s probably why amateur baker Lara Mason decided to create a life-size version of the third in line to the throne in edible form. The 29-year-old English woman made the cake for the Cake International competition held in Birmingham each year, and she said she felt “delighted” when she won the gold for creating the little prince in cake form.
