Melbourne’s Iconic Buildings Inspired Monumental Cake Competition

If you're an architecture geek, you'll love this!

In its 150th anniversary, University of Melbourne hosted a competition in baking. The theme “Batter, Bake & Build” challenged the bakers to faithfully replicate the iconic structures from Melbourne’s City Centre. This is to celebrate the similarities between baking and architecture.

Here are the cakes that won the Top 5 slots:

First Prize: Flinders Street Station by Zarah Noriel—$1,500 Australian Dollars (AUD)
Second Prize: Southbank Theatre by Monica Nam—$700 AUD
