CHOCOLATE SPRINKLES???

London – A chef at a mice-infested wedding cake shop told inspectors droppings found in his ingredients were chocolate sprinkles, a court heard.  The filthy basement of Bake & Cake in Edgware Road, central London, was covered in rodent mess alongside discarded food, piles of sawdust and filthy machinery. When an inspector found icing for cakes embedded with mouse droppings, the chef insisted it was actually chocolate vermicelli used for buns. Inspectors from Westminster Council raided the premises on July 17 last year and immediately discovered a series mouse  infestation.
‘She pulled out trays in the cooling rack and found mouse droppings embedded in the circular disk used to add writing to cakes’, said prosecutor Marie-Claire Amuah.
