Giant Hogwarts Castle Cake Celebrates 20 Years of the First Harry Potter Movie

Celebrations of the 20th anniversary of the first Harry Potter film included a scale model cake of Hogwarts Castle, a large, seven-story building built in a valley area, featured in the fantasy film franchise. The model cake, which was 6-feet wide, 5-feet tall and weighed 100 kilograms, was unveiled at the Warner Bros. Studio Tour in Leavesden, Watford, where most of the franchise was filmed. It took artists and sculptors 320 hours to make the cake with vegan-friendly ingredients. Warner Bros. has donated the cake to One Vision, a local charity working to address the challenges of food poverty.

One Vision shared a picture of the cake and the ceremony, saying that they will ensure that the cake is distributed to their service users.

“Delighted to share the good news of our partnership with Warner Bros. We have been selected as a charity to be part of the 20th anniversary of the making of the Harry Potter film. We will ensure the cake will be distributed to our service users ,” it tweeted.

Artist and cake sculptor Michel Wibovo created the cake.
