Tammy Warren spotted the gigantic lemon at a fruit and veg stall on a farm in Wiltshire and explained that the citric whooper is bigger than her son Sebastian's head.

Warren purchased the large lemon and is now planning to make drizzle cakes and "lots of gin and tonics" with the massive piece of fruit.

She told The Sun newspaper: "It’s the biggest lemon I’ve ever seen in my life, I thought it would make a great cake.

"It’s bigger than [my baby] Sebastian’s head.

"In this case, when life gives you lemons, I’ll be making a couple of lemon drizzle cakes, I’ll have a go at limoncello, candied lemon peel and lots of gin and tonics."

The zesty giant is 17 times the size of a normal lemon and was grown from the same tree that in 1989 produced a then world-record-sized lemon that had a girth of 31.5 inches.
