Michigan Bakery Spends 400 Hours On Jaw-Dropping, Gravity-Defying Cake

January 10, 2026

A jaw-dropping, life-sized cake sculpture honoring Detroit Lions stars Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jahmyr Gibbs is turning heads in the front window of The Home Bakery in downtown Rochester.

The gravity-defying creation took more than 400 hours to build, using a massive mix of Rice Krispies, cake, and icing to bring the players to life.

“This one was really pushing my limits,” said bakery owner Heather Tocco.
