A bakery has sparked debate with a TikTok of a donut in the shape of a severed finger, saying they planned to send it to Johnny Depp

• A bakery's TikTok appeared to mock an incident that led to Johnny Depp severing a finger.
• It followed testimony about the incident during the defamation trial between Depp and Amber Heard.

An Australian bakery has drawn a mixed response with a TikTok video showing a box containing a bottle of Smirnoff vodka and a donut in the shape of a hand with a severed finger, saying they planned to send it to Amber Heard. The person speaking in the video held up the finger-shaped section of the donut, saying, "We'll send Johnny Depp this piece."

Heard's ex-husband Johnny Depp has alleged Heard threw a vodka bottle at him which led to his finger being "severed" during a 2015 trip to Australia. Heard denied this, and testified she believes Depp hurt his finger by smashing a plastic phone to "smithereens."

Depp is suing Heard for defamation, accusing her of ruining his reputation and career with what he says are false domestic violence allegations. Heard countersued, saying Depp physically assaulted her on multiple occasions before and during their marriage, which ended in divorce in 2016.

The TikTok video, which now has 590,000 views, was posted on May 3 by the TikTok account belonging to a bakery called Dessert Boxes. The on-screen caption read, "We're sending Amber Heard a box!" A caption underneath the video read, "Will she like it?" with a laughing emoji. The hashtag #JusticeForJohnnyDepp, which has typically been used by people who support Depp's case, was added at the bottom of the video.

Many commenters under the video appeared to believe the TikTok inappropriately mocked the serious nature of the incident. The top comment, with 707 likes, said, "This meant to be funny???," while other commenters said, "This is so tone-deaf," and "no wonder victims of abuse don't speak up."

Other comments praised the "dark humor" of the video, and some appeared to suggest Heard deserved to be mocked. On social media, a huge community of Depp fans have taken over platforms, making memes about Heard and her legal team.

Dessert Boxes' TikTok account has 69,000 followers, and the business typically shares videos promoting its recipes and sweet products. The company has also made several videos where the business appears to mock or parody a celebrity by saying it is going to make a dessert inspired by a controversy they were involved in. While some of their posts have gone viral before, they typically receive less than 10,000 views each, making their video about Heard one of the most-viewed on the account.

Dessert Boxes did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

The fifth and final week of the Depp v Heard trial will resume today after a week-long recess. Heard is set to continue giving evidence on the stand before her lawyers call their remaining witnesses to speak. The trial has captured interest on social media, particularly on TikTok, with the hashtag "#JusticeForJohnnyDepp" receiving 11 billion views, and the hashtag "#Amber Heard" receiving 9 billion views.
