Fans Reacts As Taylor Swift Super Bowl cake made by baker

A baker has created a sculpture of Taylor Swift out of cake ahead of the Super Bowl on Sunday. Lara Mason’s video of her making the giant sculpture has so far clocked up more than three million views on TikTok.  Using almost 130kg (287lbs) of ingredients, Mrs Mason sculpted the cake in 38 hours over a week.

In the sculpture, Swift was represented holding the Super Bowl trophy above her head while wearing a Kansas City Chiefs sweater – in support of her boyfriend, Chiefs player Travis Kelce.

 

“She’s amazing, she’s a brilliant role model for young girls,” Mrs Mason said about the singer.

The 37-year-old baker, from Brownhills, Walsall, has made cakes for almost 13 years, having crafted similar sculptures – from Harry Styles and Ed Sheeran to Queen Elizabeth II and Spiderman.

Her festive recreation of the Grinch even garnered the attention of star Jim Carrey, who joked: “My ultimate goal is not just to be admired by my fans, but to be eaten by them.”

Speaking about making Taylor Swift, the baker said: “She’s obviously so beautiful, so it was hard to get her looking so pretty.”

In contrast, Mrs Mason said it was easier to show the likeness of the Grinch due to his distinctive features, remarking: “The more gruesome and weird you make the face, the better.”

Alongside her husband, the 37-year-old crafted the replica of Swift in her studio at home, much to the excitement of their six-year-old twin daughters.

“They love her, they love the music, the cowboy boots, everything,” the mother-of-two laughed.

“So they loved it. Every day they’d come home from school and [the cake] was a bit bigger.

“They’re my biggest fans, they’re telling everyone about it.”

The cake was Mrs Mason’s tallest to date at 7ft (2.13m).

“People don’t realise cake is actually so heavy, it doesn’t like to defy gravity,” she said.

“My husband and I built the internal structure, otherwise it would just fall to the ground.”

The baker chose red velvet and vanilla for its flavour, to match the colours of the Kansas Chiefs’ red and white kit.

She used food colouring to get the right shade of blonde for Swift’s hair and a blowtorch to add a shine to her trousers.

The 37-year-old admitted that she was nervous in case the star saw the cake but added it would be cool to know she had seen it.

“We’ll 100% be watching the Super Bowl on Sunday. The grandparents will be looking after the kids and we’re seeing if there’s anywhere open playing the game,” the baker said.

While the couple normally support the Denver Broncos or the Green Bay Packers, Mrs Mason hoped there would be one particular outcome on Sunday.

“For the fairy tale ending, it absolutely has to be the Chiefs,” she said
