Happy birthday! Oh, and Sherlock and Moriarty are dead (Picture: @SamiraAhmedUK)

Does this cake hold the secret to Sherlock’s The Reichenbach Fall mystery?

Probably not, but it looks beautiful nevertheless.

Journalist and broadcaster Samira Ahmed tweeted this picture of her nephew’s birthday cake – his mum coming up with the idea for the cake as Sherlock is the 15-year-old’s favourite TV show.

What remains of Moriarty’s brain looks particularly tasty, but Sherlock’s ambiguous facial expression is giving nothing away as to how he managed to jump off the building’s roof and survive.

A delicious conundrum if ever we saw one.
