Rolex Daytona dial ? is this a fcake?
I have my suspicions that this may not be a genuine Rolex Daytona dial? firstly the colour of the dial and the hands look off as does the subsidiary dials and numeration
joking aside a lot of attention to detail by the artisan who knocked this up. |

I believe that cake is made with real vanilla and a touch of saffron. I've seen similar looking cakes made from high fructose corn syrup that cost a heck of a lot less. Of course they weigh about 1/2 as much.

Pretty sure any bakery can use a JPEG or scan of a Photo and apply it to a cake .. just get a nice Hi-Res dial pic for your local bakery.

Amazing what they can print on fondant. Guess it’s really nothing more than food dye printing with inkjet technology.
