The Game of Thrones actress shared a photo of her latest creation, which appeared to be chocolate cupcakes topped with fluffy marshmallow frosting and a giant marshmallow. Adding the finishing touches, Emilia sprayed each cupcake with glitter to create a gold shimmery effect.

Although it might seem like an unusual combination, fans revealed Emilia's recipe may have been inspired by London-based Primrose Bakery which uses raw egg whites to create the marshmallow frosting and adds a dusting of glitter.

The photo also gave her followers a new look inside her stunning kitchen, which followed a very bright colour scheme. The yellow cabinets were lined with a dark blue trim that matched the handles, while the splashback around the oven included small blue and white patterned tiles that surrounded a huge blue dog in the middle.
