A Los Angeles bakery's Paris Hilton visitor's cakes, complete with a custom nail file inside, are selling like hotcakes.
Owner Maury Rubin, of the City Bakery in Brentwood, says he's selling as many as 75 of the special Hilton-themed spiced cakes daily at $5 each.
"I knew I wanted to do this," Rubin told ABC News of his decision to make light of the heiress's jail term.
"I was kind of crushed when she got out of jail last week."
Hilton, the star of the reality show The Simple Life, was returned to jail and is currently serving time for violating probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.
