Cake. It's delicious. And if you're a Surrey-based supercar purveyor, the perfect way to celebrate a storming lap time on the Top Gear test track.
This picture of the triumphant sponge turned up on the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes official Twitter feed after the MP4-12C made it round the track in 1:16.2secs - the second fastest ever.
It's only beaten by the Ariel Atom V8 (1:15.1secs). That means the £168,500 hellion's quicker than a Bugatti Veyron SS (1:16.8secs), Gumpert Apollo (1:17.1secs) and - the car we're sure McLaren are more than a little chuffed about beating - the Ferrari 458 (1:19.1secs). In fact, it'll even take the Enzo (1:19.0secs).
So, TopGear.commers, would you prefer the MP4-12C over a 458? Or are you with Jeremy on this one?
Now watch the lap on iPlayer.
