The Future Gallery, 5 Great Newport Street, Leicester Square, WC2H 7HY

Exhibitions: , Art, Gallery

How Much: Free!

Oh sweet. Literally. The whole art as food/food as art thing has really been taking off in London of late - so much so that we keep meaning to write an extensive feature about it, but never seem to find the time.

Anyway, this looks amazing. Tate and Lyle present the brilliantly entitled Cake Britain at the Future Gallery this August, featuring edible art by the likes of Lily Vanilli, David A Smith, Prudence Staite and the ubiquitous (in a good way) Bompass & Parr.

Interestingly, did you know that it was Sir Henry Tate (of Tate & Lyle fame) who actually founded the Tate Gallery, back in the 1890s? Interesting, huh...

All proceeds go to children's charity Richard House, so donations at the door are encouraged.

27-29.08.10.
