Celebrity Chefs Create 10 Luscious Cakes

Sylvia Weinstock's Angel Food Cake with Lime, Coconut, and Blood Orange Buttercreams

No mere whim prompted Sylvia Weinstock to top her angel food cake with an explosion of sugar daffodils. "Daffodils are the 10th-anniversary flower," says the meticulous sugar artist. "And yellow is one of my happy colors." Weinstock iced the layers with lime, coconut, and blood orange buttercreams—"flavors that sing out to you," she says. The New York City–based Weinstock, a former kindergarten teacher, was dubbed "the Leonardo da Vinci of wedding cakes" by Bon Appétit magazine and counts Ivanka Trump, Sean "Diddy" Combs, and Jennifer Lopez among her clients.
