Comedian Laura Daniel has made a horrific cake tribute to New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern,sex video girl and boy greatly straining the age old idiom that it's the thought that counts.
Daniel's edible nightmare goblin was born from an ill-advised bake-off with Hilary Barry, a presenter on Kiwi current affairs television show Seven Sharp. Each filming in their own homes due to the coronavirus lockdown, contestants had two hours to bake a cake without flour and decorate it to look like a Kiwi icon.
In the segment aired on Tuesday, Barry made a pavlova designed to look like Aoraki / Mount Cook, the tallest mountain in New Zealand. It was a sensible choice, as pavlovas already look fairly mountainous without much effort. Barry also had some prior baking experience.

Daniel, on the other hand, was much more ambitious. Going balls to the wall with her entry, the optimistic comedian attempted to sculpt New Zealand's beloved prime minister Jacinda Ardern out of cake, frosting, and bagfuls of sweets.
It did not work out.
"I actually tried my hardest — I think she's so beautiful," said Daniel, showing a laughing Barry her frosted abomination via webcam.

"They say don't bake your Heroes," Daniel wrote after posting her finished cake on Instagram. "But I wanted to try anyway. I'm deeply sorry @jacindaardern I truly tried my best with what I had available... it's made from another NZ icon lolly cake...."
Not all of this baked embodiment of terror was edible, Daniel noting the teeth were saved from her impersonation of Ardern on New Zealand television show Jono and Ben. That's neither here nor there though, as I'm fair certain cutting into the eldritch confection would result in an immediate and unshakable curse.
At least Daniel got the object of her affections to notice her, with Ardern responding: "😳😳."
