The 'God' and Goddess' cakes, which were topped with the chocolate figures of a naked, plump man and woman with pink lips and protruding genitalia, were deemed offensive by a French court after a complaint by a shocked resident.
A judge concluded that treats - sold in a 'boulangerie' in the town of Grasse, NIce - showed 'two people of colour in grotesque and obscene attitudes', adding they violate 'human dignity, especially that of the African people or people of African descent.'

That baker should be jailed for making fun of the prez wife.
They will complain about anything accept a heck.
If they made another set in white chocolate, would it still be an issue? Just sayin'!
