Kiwi band Six60 were in town as part of the group’s Grassroots Tour and a replica of their now-famous Dunedin flat was next to the store, along with a cake replica of the flat, made by a Weston cake business.
Six60 played at the Oamaru Opera House last night as part of their tour through New Zealand.
The miniature Six60 flat replica has accompanied the tour and has parked up at the local Four Square in each town, containing band merchandise.
"They asked me if I’d make a cake.
"I get really obsessed with this type of thing, so I had to try to rein it in," she said.
"I absolutely love events. So we thought, let’s make this a whole thing. "
Ms Harvey is well-known for her impressive cakes.
She said the Six60 flat replica was a standard chocolate cake and she used "three pounds of butter".
"It’s decadent," she said.
Although the roof nearly caved in.
Despite a small "fall" that required her to "store up" the cake’s roof, some icing came to the rescue, and it arrived on display outside the replica flat yesterday.
The cake took her about eight hours to make and will be on display for two days.
