LONDON: Lara Clarke, from Brownhills, has previously made near-life-sized cakes of Hollywood stars Johnny Depp and Jennifer Lawrence.
Her latest creation, baked to celebrate the production of the two millionth Defender, fed 2,000 people at an event in Solihull on Monday.
The half-scale replica weighed 600kg and featured working headlights.
Comprising 32 sponge cakes, 50kg (110 lbs) of butter cream, 20kg (44 lbs) of ganache and 50kg icing, it took her 150 hours to produce.
Ms Clarke said the bake was so heavy it had to be delivered by fork lift truck.
“We arrived by van and everyone was coming round to have a look,” she said.
“They couldn’t believe it was a cake. There was plenty to go round and everyone on the factory floor got a piece.”
Ms Clarke said it started after she tagged JLR in a tweet about a small Land Rover birthday cake.
“They got in touch and asked if I could make a cake in the shape of an engine to mark the opening of their new engine plant.
“A woman then asked me if I could make a Land Rover cake.
“It was originally meant to be quite small, but I asked them if they wanted something that would really impress people.”
Ms Clarke said she was getting married in October, a week before the Cake International competition at Birmingham’s NEC.
Rather than enter this year, she said she planned to bake “the best wedding cake that’s ever been seen”.
