Does any one know what happened to that orange Skoda Fabia car made from cake. It was in an advert.

might have been eaten or might be jusst visual effects

or might have been some fresh cream put over some cardboard boxes to look like a car

Due to the lighting used for the filming the cake started going bad straight away & had to be thrown. This is part of an email received from Skoda :

l can advise that once filming was completed, we would have liked to have offered the Fabia cake to local charities, schools & hospitals. Unfortunately, as the car had been under studio lights for several days, it may have posed a health & safety risk if eaten & we were therefore unable to do this.

Some goodies from the car were preserved & vacuum packed such as the marzipan wing-mirrors, chocolate speedometer, wafer engine fan & the Fabia badge icing, & will be held as mementoes of the production.

It was decided that as we were unable to donate the cake to charity, the cake was instead recycled. It was taken away & composted, so that it could return to the natural environment. The cake was taken to a place called the East London Community Recycling Project in Clapton. The project has been set up to provide local residents & members with quality compost for use on their gardens or allotments.

l would like to thank u for taking the time to contact us. l can assure u that ur contact details will not be used other than to respond to ur e-mail.

Yours sincerely,
