You can have your cake and drive it too

Fabia_2 Fallon in London created this tasty commercial for car client Skoda, in which a bunch of cooks bake up a Fabia sedan cake. According to Militant Platypus, all that’s left of the cake now are the marzipan wing-mirrors and chocolate speedometer. The rest, which was unsafe to eat following the lengthy shoot, will be used as compost in East London.

I have to say, Fallon have been producing nice but understated ads for this unfortunate brand for some time now. This is the first one, however, that's really made me sit up and smile in front of the tv. Absolutely perfect for a family hatchback.
