This Astronomically Correct Jupiter Cake Is A Gas

Not only is this Jupiter cake just a marvellous sight, it’s an astronomically correct model of Jupiter. Hungry? Good. But first, let yourself remember a little primary school science.

Created by Cake Crumbs — the same smart baker behind this awesome, accurate Earth cake — the edible Jupiter shows the planet’s core of rock and ice, surrounded by a layer of liquid metallic hydrogen, ensconced in a outer layer of molecular hydrogen.

While the layers aren’t to scale, the cake as a whole is undoubtedly impressive, with intricate details painted on the outer fondant layer. We just hope it tastes as good as it looks. [CakeCrumbs via JWZ via BoingBoing]
