I think its a brilliant ad really well thought up.. thought they would have donated it to worthy cause....

And the remaining question - what happened to the cake? Barker says they looked at donating it to charity, but by the time the cake had been in the studio and under the lights during construction it was not thought fit for human consumption. It ended up in a compost heap - though the chocolate speedometer and marzipan wing mirrors were, reportedly, kept for posterity.


This is an enormous amount of trouble to go to for an advert - some estimates say that it cost £500,000 to make; one newspaper pointed out the comparative value of a Skoda (the advert costs 62 times as much).

It just shows you to be religiously intolerant towards others beliefs.
It also shows you have no idea about current car build quality as Skoda now make excellent cars.
May of been enough there to feed the 5000 though

I was on my way to work this morning when I had an accident with a Skoda. Am not happy. I'm full of jam, cream and jelly.

You've got to think of this £500,000 cake in comparison to the cost of other ads - things filmed on location in exotic places for example.

Incidentally I'm puzzled that they used the gone off cake as compost. I was always told that cooked food cannot be composted and that it only serves to attract vermin.
