The statue is made of 190 kilograms of chocolate, 60 kilograms of fondant, at least 300 kilograms of cake sponge and 100 kilograms of butter cream.
The cake artist Dorothy Klerck said that it took a lot of planning and great team to bring to life the idea of the greatest Mandela cake in the world.

Members of the public were invited to the #MandelaCupCakeChallenge by donating R1,000 for a child with cancer
Alternatively, individuals and businesses can cook 100 cupcakes to donate to Cupcakes of Hope and sold to
R10 each.
Money goes towards the payment of chemotherapy patients says Cupcakes of Hope founder Sandy Cipriano. "It's the sweetest way to save a life," she said.
Cipriano said it costs about 1,000 rand to support cancer patients with not only their medical bills, but also their daily expenses.
