Dystopian Heroine Desserts

Lara Clarke Creates Life-Sized Hunger Games Cake of Katniss Everdeen

— November 13, 2014 — Lifestyle
The 'Mockingjay Part 1' movie is set to hit theaters on November 21, 2014, and those who want to celebrate in style will be interested in this Hunger Games cake. A life-sized rendition of Katniss Everdeen, it was created by the same person who won the Internet last year with her Johnny Depp creation.

It comes as no surprise that Lara Clarke won the Cake International contest with her Hunger Games cake. It took her two and a half months to bake both this cake and one modeled after her favorite 'Game of Thrones' character, Tyrion Lannister. The Hunger Games cake was made using 150 eggs, 22 pounds of flour and 10 kilograms and butter. The results were incredible.
