Featuring a ganache drip and available in both vanilla and chocolate frosting, it’s set to rival the Coles mud cake as the most "hacked" product of the year.

The $4 mud cake has generated a cult following on Facebook, with thousands of fans sharing photos of their own hacked creations using fondant, icing, lollies, chocolates and macarons.
