These chocolate ‘Cumberbunnies’ will let you eat Benedict Cumberbatch’s face

If you’re one of the many people on this planet that think that Benedict Cumberbatch is good enough to eat, you’re in luck, as die-hard fans of the actor can now nibble on his handsome face.

A Brighton-based chocolatier has created a 400g ‘Cumberbunny’ which features the 39-year-old Sherlock star’s recognisable face, complete with two bunny ears and placed on a rabbit torso.

Available in white, milk and dark chocolate each 'Cumberbunny' comes complete with an edible 22 carat gold bow-tie and lustre dust.

Chocolatier Jen Lindsey-Clark says she created the figures after creating a full-size chocolate sculpture of the actor with Plunge productions last year for a TV channel.

“It was obvious how popular Benedict Cumberbatch is,” Jen explains, “we decided it would be rather fun to make a mini rabbit version so all the die-hard Cumberfans could get a piece of him.”

The chocolate crafter says it takes her around three hours to create each of the quirky rabbits, which are cast from a food safe silicone mould.

Thinking of chomping on one yourself? It won’t come cheap - the quirky sweet treat will set admirers back £50.
