Michelle said she "couldn't be happier" with the results.

She added: "What better reason than the 25th anniversary of the series of Pride And Prejudice to create a birthday cake to celebrate."

The life-sized treat took cake artist Michelle more than 200 hours to make.

She started by sketching a model based on the 1995 TV adaptation, before starting on the baking.
