Mr. Darcy has long been considered one of the tastiest characters in screen history, but a British artist has now produced physical proof, immortalizing the popular Jane Austen character in cake form.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of “Pride & Prejudice,” the BBC’s popular 1995 miniseries, broadcaster UKTV commissioned cake connoisseur Michelle Wibowo to construct a life-like model of Colin Firth’s romantic hero — and he’s quite the treat.

Wibowo is a world-renowned cake artist, sugar sculptor and author whose skill derives from the combination of an architecture degree from her university in Indonesia, where she was born, and her studies at the National Baking School in London. Between 2008 and 2016, she won three gold and two silver medals at the Culinary Olympics, released a how-to book on cake sculpting and featured in season 2 of Channel 4’s “Extreme Cake Makers.” (MTI, variety.com)
