Tesco sells "Matilda" cake; it quickly sells out

independent.co.uk

Tesco has launched a "Matilda" chocolate cake inspired by the film, prompting a surge in demand and selling out online. The cake recreates the iconic scene of Bruce Bogtrotter eating a massive cake. The 24-layer cake, featuring 12 layers of chocolate sponge and ganache, is made by Studio Bakery. It's smaller than the movie version, serving 10 people, and has gone viral on social media. The cake's popularity reflects a broader trend of childhood nostalgia in the food industry. The cake is available at Tesco, but is currently sold out on the bakery's website.
