I can't help but think that it looks like a real toy that kids would play with rather than eat. Although not your average [wedding cake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robocake), this [spooky, supernatural confection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lolas-bakery) certainly would make a couple's special day even more special. Created by Charm City Cakes, the Ghostbusters Cake is a replication of the climactic [Stay Puft Marshmellow Man](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghost-protein-cereal-x-lucky-charms) scene. The icing on the cake (pun intended) is that it also glows in the dark.
