Meet Rhiannon: a self-taught chef from
Australia, whose cross-sectional photos of planet cakes have gone viral
on the Internet within a couple of weeks. A 25-year-old Zoology graduate
from Australia bakes cakes that are scientifically accurate and portray
all the layers within Jupiter and Earth. In her recipes, mudcake
becomes Jupiter’s theoretical rock/ice core, almond butter serves as
the liquid metallic hydrogen, and colored vanilla is used to
imitate the liquid molecular hydrogen.
Besides the layers that you find as you
cut the cake, the decoration of the outer layer deserves separate praise
words. Both planets are drawn with powder, liquid, gel paste and great
attention to detail, staying true to the contours of the continents of
the Earth and capturing swirls on Jupiter. Because of all the questions
about the recipes that Rhiannon received to her mailbox, the young
baker even shot a video tutorial of how the cakes are made.
