Last year my mother had a bakery make my birthday cake to look like an alloy wheel and tire. It was spectacular. She said when she picked it up everybody in the bakery wanted to see it. Fun stuff!
Rubber or Cake? The Amazing Creations of Russia’s Zhanna
Written By: Seyth Miersma
This incredibly detailed “nokian” tire is actually a cake created by a Russian artisan (or bakery, we’re not really sure) called Zhanna located in St. Petersburg. Though we don’t have any real details about the operation, we did find a whole passel of additional amazing confections by the talented baker, at the laughable haha.nu. We’ll admit that not all of these cakes have an automotive theme but we were too blown away not to share them with you. Our favorite has got to be the cash machine, enjoy.

Is this relevant? Its bad enough your “Question of the Day” is lame, now you’re reporting on birthday cakes? WTF guys?

Chill out, it is automotive related. If you don’t like it, don’t read it.

Great. Keep the variety coming. Don’t pay attention to those who don’t get it.
BTW: Am I seeing things? Is that tire cake a directional studded snow tire? Only in Russia.

@Jeff
I had wondered about those “studs” myself. Extra points if you make your tire-shaped B-Day cake suitable for Russian winter.
