Headline: Bakery Can Hardly Keep Toilet Paper Cakes in Stock

Caption: The Schürener Backparadies, a German bakery and bistro, has been making customers smile during this frightening global pandemic with their loo roll shaped cakes! Such is their popularity that they’re now more in demand than the real thing! With news of the hoarding of toilet paper, bakery manager Tim Korteüm of The Schürener baking paradise in Dortmund, thought he’d bring a smile to people’s faces by meeting demand with edible toilet paper cakes. And the customers it seems, are eating it up. “Finally, toilet paper!” Writes a customer on Facebook under the posted post of the bakery. “But only one role per customer,” jokes another. They bakery initially made only eight of the cakes as a gag, but they were gone within 2 to 3 minutes because everyone in the bakery took a roll home with them. So, they made 60, then 80 and have just been trying to keep up. Requests from all over the world are coming in via the internet. The round marble cakes, wrapped in white fondant, are being churned out at 200 a day. The bakery responds with a good sense of humour “We should probably limit it. Some come in and buy ten cakes straight away. We are baking as fast as we can.”
