    A wedding descended into chaos when cakes were spiked with drugs and two people ended up in hospital.

    One of the victims was a 63-year-old grandma who got knocked out for 12 hours after tucking into the cannabis-laced cupcake.

    The other guest was also rushed to Torbay Hospital after eating some of the spiked cake.

    After coming to, the gran claimed the cakes were so full of cannabis her sister-in-law was getting ready to perform CPR before paramedics arrived.

    She said: ‘My sister-in-law told me afterwards that she had trouble finding my pulse and that I was grey in colour.

    ‘I was completely oblivious to what was going on until I woke up at 3am the following day at the hospital.

    ‘In-between the wedding and the reception, cupcakes were randomly placed on the table. Unbeknown to me, they contained drugs.

    ‘Had I known that, I never would have touched one.

    ‘A young child had been about to pick up one of the cupcakes, but fortunately the child’s parents had just managed to stop them from consuming the cupcake, which could have been devastating.

    ‘It’s horrific to think that the perpetrator sat and watched all of this unfold, and then just disappeared with no accountability.’

    Police were called but no officers visited the two victims in hospital and the case was eventually dropped due to a lack of evidence.

    Anti-spiking campaigner, Dawn Dines, warned there is a growing trend of adding drugs to food, not just drinks.

    She said: ‘Everyone has a right to know exactly what is going into their body.

    ‘There should be equal power and informed consent; anything else is spiking.

    ‘That’s why I’m petitioning the home secretary, Suella Braverman, to widen the legal definition of spiking and to make spiking a specific, notifiable criminal offence.

    ‘Ms Braverman and the Home Office have until October 26 to feed back to the House of Commons Committee on the progress towards creating a separate criminal offence for spiking.

    ‘In the meantime, I am determined that stories like this are heard.’
