These super cute animals are good enough to eat thanks to a talented mother-of-two who creates incredibly lifelike cake replicas of people's pets.
Hannah Edwards, from London, uses photographs of her clients beloved pets to make the remarkable sponge sculptures which are entirely edible.
The 35-year-old started baking as a way of making money after being made redundant while looking after her two young children and soon discovered her talent for realistic replicas.
Hannah, who runs her own business called The Cake Illusionist, now also travels the world teaching cake sculpting.
She said: 'I created a lion for my son's first birthday, I didn't think much of it yet when I showed it to friends and family they loved it.
'From then on people started to ask for their pets in cake and slowly over time I've worked to improve them, working towards more and more realistic detailing.'

Amazing but who could eat their pet? She needs to use a more permanent medium.

WOW! I agree about cutting into your favorite pet, but an amazing gift to someone.
