When it comes to birthday treats, most four-year-olds would gleefully try to eat their own bodyweight in cake.
要说生日吃啥大餐,大多数4岁大的孩子恨不得吃下跟自己体重一样分量的蛋糕。
So for Alfie Rose, it was a dream come true when he was presented with a life-sized replica of himself made from chocolate sponge.
而一个叫Alfie Rose的小男孩竟美梦成真了,因为他收到了一个按照他的模样等比例做成的巧克力海绵蛋糕。
It is so realistic, it looks like a waxwork model of the boy himself – only a lot tastier.
这个蛋糕跟Alfie非常形似,像是为他度身打造的蜡像,只是这个“蜡像”更美味。
The cake weighs two stone and was made from a dozen tiers of sponge which were then coated in chocolate and buttercream icing and airbrushed with edible food colouring.
这个蛋糕重2英石(12.7千克),由很多层海绵蛋糕组成,外面裹上了巧克力酱和奶油糖霜,然后涂上可食用染料。
And because the real Alfie is never far from his favourite monkey cuddly toy, an identical edible monkey forms part of the amazing birthday surprise.
因为Alfie总是将他的毛绒猴子玩偶带在身边,所以一个一模一样的猴子也成了这份生日惊喜的重要部分。
It took 27-year-old baker Lara Clarke 15 hours to make, and was a gift ordered by Alfie's godmother Tammy Morris, 25, and her husband Stephen, 35.
这个蛋糕由27岁的面包师Lara Clarke完成,花费了她足足15个小时。订蛋糕的是Alfie25岁的教母Tammy Morris,以及她35岁的丈夫Stephen。
Alfie's mother Chantelle Rose, 23, said: 'I couldn't believe how amazing the cake looked, and I just cried. Alfie was so happy. He was just screaming and pointing, "It's me, it's me, it's Alfie and monkey".
Alfie的母亲Chantelle Rose现年23岁,她说:“我真不敢相信这个蛋糕竟然那么棒,我都哭了。Alfie看到了非常高兴,他一直指着蛋糕尖叫:‘那是我,那真的是我,那是Alfie和他的猴子玩偶。’”
