00:01I am here with the life-size sculpted replica of the Prince and Princess of Wales.
00:05This is them on the balcony after the King's coronation three years ago.
00:09And just look at some of the detail, it's quite astonishing.
00:12This took three months of hard work, 60 kilograms of sugar paste and 20 kilograms of modelling chocolate.
00:18Now we'll come back to the royals in a bit but let me introduce you to the NEC in Birmingham
00:23where they are hosting the world's biggest cake exhibit of its kind.
00:2620,000 people will walk through these halls and be greeted to some of the world's best cake sculptors and
00:33chocolatiers.
00:34I did her over the space of about two months, not solid but little bits and pieces here and there.
00:40A lot of love went into her, an awful lot of modelling, chocolate and my dog literally wouldn't leave her
00:45alone.
00:46I kept fetching his toys to her thinking she's going to throw them for him but now it's a labour
00:52of love.
00:52I can imagine.
