Eagle-eyed viewers struggle to spot odd one out in tricky cupcake illusion

Optical illusions really are taking the internet by storm, and only the most trained brains will be able to easily spot the odd one out in the latest offering.

This baffling sweet treat illusion has got people desperately trying to find the cupcake that is different from the rest in under five seconds but has left many dumbfounded and unable to spot it.

The picture, as shown by the Sun, contains over 100 cupcakes that are absolutely identical - but there is an anomaly somewhere among the many rows.

And, it's your job to try and spot it within the timeframe of just five seconds. Have you managed it yet?

If you need a clue, then it's a good idea to start inspecting the finer details on the picture.

Perhaps you might like to take a look at the cupcake cases, rather than focusing on the toppings of the cupcakes instead?

If you can't spot it though, don't worry, as the answer has been circled below - did you manage to see it before the five seconds elapsed?

If you look at the picture, it is three columns in from the right-hand side and towards the bottom of the mind-boggling brain teaser.

The more brain teasers you complete, and optical illusions you do, the better your mental awareness becomes.

People were baffled when they tried to spot the giraffe in this picture. The busy, multi-coloured illustration features a giraffe in and amongst the toy animals - and you need to find it in just 11 seconds. Lions, hippos, birds, elephants, deer, and monkeys are also contained in the photo, but it's the giraffe you need to look out for.

There's a ballet dancer amongst the flamingos in this picture, and if you find it in five seconds then, good news, you probably have a high IQ.

Do you enjoy brain teasers? Did you manage to spot the odd cupcake? Let us know in the comments.
