Hamish Blake has become a viral sensation after sharing his incredible birthday cake creations for his children.
And now the 42-year-old funnyman has revealed the secret behind his impressive baking skills.
Hamish, who has been known to take up to seven hours to complete his spectacular confections, admits he indulges in a bit of drinking to get through the task.
Appearing on Nova 100’s Jase & Lauren show on Friday, Hamish was asked whether he struggled with a hangover after drinking what the Lego Masters host calls ‘building juice’.
‘No, remarkably, it has bizarrely become a bit of a tradition,’ he told hosts Jason Hawkins and Lauren Phillips.

He continued: ‘I actually don’t drink that much, [so] probably cake night is one of my heavier drinking nights of the year.
‘Which does seem irresponsible to always be hungover at your kid’s birthday. But I’m on such a high usually from sugar for one thing, lot of icing and stuff.
‘But also just like we got it done. The kids are excited they’re happy. That’s the point. Yeah, you kind of actually do just push through.’
