Edible masterpieces, like the Mondrian cake or the Matisse parfait, have some new competition.
OC's web studio recently got spoiled by a direct delivery from our friend Victoria Zagami, owner of Park Slope-based Made In Heaven Cakes. Inspired by the surreal flowers and foliage in Opening Ceremony’s Pre-Fall 2015 line, Victoria created an insanely chic cake that was *almost* too beautiful to eat. Think six layers of fondant-covered vanilla that take their shape from the OC Showroom platforms and highlight the painted leaves and sea anemones in our recent collection.
"Can we eat it?" more than a few staffers whispered, eyes wide, as the box lifted to unveil the marshmallow-scented, massive dessert. Not an uncommon remark: As a second-generation bakery, Made In Heaven has been whipping up art as confection for 17 years now, with Victoria's recent, fashion-angled spin tailored to everyone from Eva Chen (a Chanel baby cake?!) to the Jacquemus designers. "I was drawn to the art of cake decorating because it combines my two passions: food and art," Victoria says. "I have been doing this for the past six years and I am always finding new ways to challenge myself."
Now, please excuse us as we make cake a very necessary food group. #Whatdiet? Well, it's not even our birthday! Model is wearing the Opening Ceremony Palm Collage Striped A-Line Coat in pelagic blue.
Six layers of vanilla cake, held together by fondant and pure love.
The painted leaves are an ode to Pre-Fall 2015's pattern—seen throughout women's latest arrivals.
2015 Resolution: Eat More Cake.
