The Most Expensive Cakes That Have Ever Been Made

Want to have your cake and eat it too? While that might be the case if you stop at your local bakery or head to the grocery store, you might need a bit of a bigger budget if you want to enjoy a slice of the most expensive cakes that have ever been made.

That’s right; it turns out some people are willing to spend millions of dollars on the perfect creation. We guess it’s not every day you get to spend six figures and be able to eat the evidence.

A pirate-themed cake comes with a treasure chest fit for pirate ships 

  • Made By: Dimuthi Kumarasinghe
  • Price: $35 million

Having a themed cake is one thing, but having a themed cake that costs a staggering $35 million is another. Amazingly, that's the case with one pirate-themed cake that's served up by none other than chef Dimuthi Kumarasinghe. Still, it turns out you get plenty of different tastes for the price tag in this ten-layer creation.

Coconut meringue, zucchini, and yam are just some of the flavors in the mix, but none of these scream $35 million to many. That's because the price tag is boosted by the number of gems found across the creation. The treasure chest is filled with various sapphires, while the scorpion and shells come with gems of their own.

Gucci Mane and Keyshia Ka’oir didn’t hold back on their towering wedding cake 

  • Made By: Edda’s Cake Designs
  • Price: $75,000

Celebrities seem to be the kind of people who either go hard or go home when it comes to their weddings. At least, that was the case when rapper Gucci Mane walked down the aisle with entrepreneur Keyshia Ka’oir in 2017. In fact, it’s rumored the couple might have spent upwards of $2 million on their big day.

A large portion of that - an estimated $75,000, to be precise - went toward the cake. The towering creation was so tall that it stood over the bride and groom and almost reached all the way to the ceiling. It even took a diamond-encrusted discord wielded by Gucci to cut the thing for his guests.

Grace Kelly’s wedding cake came complete with two turtle doves and a music box 

  • Made By: Monte-Carlo Hotel de Paris
  • Price: $475,000

Dating a royal is usually enough to get all eyes on someone. However, Grace Kelly was already used to the attention, thanks to her time as a legendary Hollywood actress. Marrying Prince Rainier III of Monaco meant the pair needed something big to make a statement - like a six-tier 200-pound wedding cake. Still, they didn’t have to spend a penny.

Why? The chefs working at the Monte-Carlo Hotel de Paris gifted the cake to the couple, which was allegedly worth almost half a million dollars. From a music box playing ‘Wedding March’ with rotating figures of the couple to a cage that released two turtle doves when the cake was cut, this creation had it all.

A diamond-encrusted chocolate cake doesn't come cheap 

  • Made By: Masami Miyamoto
  • Price: $850,000

Plenty of people have heard that size doesn't matter - and this almost million-dollar cake might go to prove that's true. Some cakes stand so tall that they almost touch the sky. This diamond-encrusted creation? It might be small, but baker Masami Miyamoto ensured that every inch of this sparkles from all directions. The best bit? It's chocolate.

Just when many of us thought chocolate cake couldn't get any better, this baker went and covered the entire thing in gems to boost its value up to a whopping $850,000. While we're sure no one scrimped on the ingredients and it tasted delicious, it's tough to look past all that bling to the cake underneath.

The Cake Boss was the baker behind one of the most expensive cakes that have ever been made 

  • Made By: Buddy Valastro
  • Price: $30 million

If you’ve ever seen the reality show ‘Cake Boss,’ you’re probably used to seeing all kinds of incredible creations brought to life. Buddy Valastro, aka the Cake Boss himself, is the star of the show - and the one behind one of the most expensive cakes of all time. That moment came when he created editor-in-chief Devorah Rose’s wedding cake.

Standing at seven tiers tall already meant this creation was impressive. However, the $30 million price tag made even more people stop and stare. Most of that value is down to the sheer number of precious stones and jewels covering the cake, such as the glistening tiara that served as the topper for this one-of-a-kind wedding cake.

Sofía Vergara and Joe Manganiello worked with a top cake designer for their wedding 

  • Made By: Sylvia Weinstock
  • Price: $50,000

Being one of Hollywood’s top actresses meant Sofía Vergara was almost destined to have a wedding to outdo most other weddings. That moment came in 2015 when the star walked down the aisle with actor Joe Manganiello that was finished off with only the best of the best. One of the many aspects of it all was the couple’s cake.

It cost a pretty penny with a price tag of $50,000 but gave the pair a chance to work with legendary cake designer Sylvia Weinstock. Their five-tier cake was covered top to bottom in iced flowers, which delicately added a touch of something incredible to the look. Still, nothing would be enough to take away from Sofía and Joe.

An aquarium-themed cake is one of Carlo’s Bakery’s most expensive creations 

  • Made By: Carlo’s Bakery
  • Price: $500,000 - $1 million

Can you put a price on creating something for your loved one? Apparently not. At least, that was the case for Buddy Valastro and the team working at Carlo’s Bakery as they worked together to whip up something incredible for Buddy’s niece. She wanted something special for her sweet 16th and quickly settled on an aquarium-themed cake as the centerpiece.

As if the idea of a giant underwater cake wasn’t enough, the center of it all was complete with a real-life fish tank and corals. All of the additions - from the coral reefs to the creatures and everything in between - were sculpted out of cake and icing, all to the sweet tune of somewhere between $500,000 and $1 million.

JLo spared no expense with her $10,000 50th birthday cake 

  • Made By: Divine Delicacies
  • Price: $10,000

You only turn 50 once, and that was seemingly all the excuse Jennifer Lopez needed to throw the party of a lifetime. At the center of it all was her incredible cake, which towered over the actress and singer. Divine Delicacies were the bakers lucky enough to be behind it all - and they didn’t disappoint with their creation.

A whopping ten tiers, all complete with black and gold detailing, wowed the crowd, while the top was fitted with a ‘50’ made entirely from Swarovski crystals. Amazingly, the cake was even covered with edible gold, filled with dulce de leche, and needed ten men to move it. Oh, and came complete with indoor sparklers as JLo cut the cake.

Anyone wanting one of Madison Lee’s cakes needs at least $5,000 

  • Made By: Madison Lee
  • Price: Starting at $5,000

It comes to something when your cakes are so in-demand and carefully created that they’re all some of the most expensive cakes that have ever been made. That’s the case for Madison Lee, who has been perfecting her skills for years. Coming from a family of bakers, it might not be tough to see where she got her inspiration.

One of her most sought-after skills are Madison’s sugar flowers. This has seen Madison work on traditional to pretty out-there cakes, all starting at a minimum price of $5,000 each. While she never makes the same cake twice, you need to be prepared to wait, as Madison’s creations take six to twelve months from idea planning to execution.

SATC showed us even wedding cakes can be luxurious 

  • Made By: Ron Ben-Israel
  • Price: $32,000

One thing the comedy-drama ‘SATC’ taught us throughout the years is we really can take anything and make it lavish if we try. It introduced us to a world many of us will never see and, of course, brought Carrie Bradshaw into our lives. The second movie in the TV show and film franchise brought even more glamor.

While the movie had a budget of $95 million, a large chunk went to the Swarovski wedding cake. The honor of bringing the $32,000 creation to life went to Ron Ben-Israel and was an instant hit with fans. Now, many have tried to create their own dazzling floating cake, but nothing will ever quite be the real thing.

Hundreds of decorations went into finishing Elvis and Priscilla’s wedding cake 

  • Made By: Denis Martig
  • Price: $22,000

There are stars, and then there’s Elvis Presley. Being arguably one of the biggest names of all time meant the King of Rock and Roll pulled out all the stops for his big day with Priscilla. The pair wed in 1967 at the Aladdin Hotel, where the hotel’s head pastry chef, Denis Martig, got to work on an extraordinary cake.

Forty-eight two-inch hearts, 478 silver dragees, and 20 pounds of Crisco shortening went into decorating the entire cake. Underneath lay yellow sponge cake that was smothered in flavored fondant icing and filled with apricot marmalade and Bavarian cream. To top it all off, the Presleys decorated their cake with royal icing and marzipan roses to complete their six-tier wonder.

Many believe Hilary Duff helped set the un-iced wedding cake trend 

  • Made By: Unknown
  • Price: $1,000 - $5,000

Plenty of wedding trends come and go. However, one that’s stood the test of time in recent years is the un-iced wedding cake trend. Hilary Duff first walked down the aisle with Mike Comrie in 2010, and although their marriage didn’t last, many claim her wedding cake has. In fact, several hail Hilary for starting un-iced wedding cakes.

According to the star, she doesn’t like things “too sweet” and “gets picky” about the icing. The solution? No icing at all! Instead, the couple had “more buttery sponge” with icing in between that’s “a little sweeter.” Even though they didn’t have icing, the couple only needed some delicate flowers to complete their wedding cake.

The Miami Heat Championship cake almost looks like the real thing 

  • Made By: Divine Delicacies
  • Price: $10,000 - $15,000

If there’s one thing we need at any good celebration party, it’s a cake. Divine Delicacies pulled something special out of the bag when they created the Miami Heat Championship cake for the team, not that many people realize it’s edible when they first see it. After all, the basketball almost looks realistic enough to be used on the court.

That is apart from the fact it’s covered in 36,000 Swarovski crystals - a tell-tale sign Divine Delicacies has been involved. The red velvet cake is even covered in edible 24-karat gold paint, but that’s not all. The cap makes the entire thing look like it’s just accessories left in the corner until you take a bite.

Jessica MV’s decorating skills justify the higher price tags on her cakes 

  • Made By: Jessica MV
  • Price: $5,000 - $10,000

It’s not just the ingredients that can see a cake’s price skyrocket. In fact, it’s not even the accessories that necessarily make things expensive. Sometimes, it’s the time and skill that goes into making cakes that see them on the pricier end of things. That’s long been the case for Jessica MV, a baker from Hanoi, Vietnam.

Her intricate creations have been praised by the rich and famous, with Jessica typically charging between $5,000 and $10,000 for a complete cake. One of the most time-consuming parts of it all are Jessica’s realistic edible flowers. Still, it’s been enough to win the baker a host of awards and even open her own cake-decorating school.

Creating intricate castle cakes is all in a day’s work for some bakers 

  • Made By: LeNovelle Cakes
  • Price: $500,000

Getting married is something plenty of people dream about - especially when we daydream about the things we can enjoy with no budget. It seems some people get to make all their dreams come true for their big day, such as setting aside a huge amount of money for one of the most expensive cakes ever made.

That comes in the form of LeNovelle Cakes’ castle cake. The baking company is used to making sizable and incredibly intricate cakes, just like the hundreds of sugar flowers adorning this creation. These surround the turrets, staircase, and couple on the balcony on this $500,000 cake fit for any wedding. Hopefully, the room was big enough for this centerpiece.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa cake was one of the more adventurous from Carlo's Bakery 

  • Made By: Carlo's Bakery
  • Price: $1,800

It seems there's nothing the show 'Cake Boss' hasn't brought to life over the years. What about famous landmarks? Yup, the show even has that covered. One of the most impressive cakes ever made came in the form of the Leaning Tower of Pisa cake the team from Carlo's Bakery brought to life for a couple's wedding.

Of course, making the tower lean without falling was all in a day's work for the team of talented bakers. All in all, it's estimated the cake cost the pair $1,800, but thankfully, it all worked like a charm. In the end, their four-foot creation ended up the center of the wedding, complete with the pair on a moped.

Idris Elba and Sabrina Dhowre worked with a family member for their wedding cake 

  • Made By: Szilvia Elba
  • Price: $2,400

For months, actor Idris Elba and his partner Sabrina Dhowre kept their wedding cake plans secret. That was until the big day rolled around, and they let the world in on the celebration. Here, it was revealed that Idris asked for some help from a family member, his cousin-in-law Szilvia Elba, who just so happens to be a cake designer.

The half-iced-half-un-iced cake became the talk of the reception in 2019 - and was apparently full of flavor. Olive oil with lemon and vanilla with cherry was reportedly a compromise between the couple. While Sabrina thought the half-iced look was “chicer,” the red roses helped to tie the $2,400 cake into the couple’s theme for the day.

Kim Kardashian had a supersized cake surprise for Foodgod in 2020 

  • Made By: Divine Delicacies

His friendship with Kim Kardashian saw the star’s birthday cake get supersized in 2020, as she called Divine Delicacies as a surprise. The cake cost $10,000 and was filled with dulce de leche, buttercream, and vanilla.

Rose Dream Cakes works a little differently from other bakers 

  • Made By: Rose Dream Cakes
  • Price: $500 - $1,000

Want a cake unlike anything else in the world? It could be time to take a visit to Rose Dream Cakes, not that you can find the store or simply walk in and out with an incredible creation. That’s because Rose Dream Cakes works a little differently, with no storefront and no walk-in appointments at their Dublin, California, location.

The bakers rose to fame as a part of the reality competition show ‘Cake Wars.’ Still, they have a small social media following and prefer an “appointment only” system. The lack of marketing hasn’t stopped Rose Dream Cakes from becoming a hot spot for the hip and stylish in the state, with cakes costing between $500 and $1,000.

Princess Diana and King Charles III had several wedding cakes at their big day 

  • Made By: Chef S.G. Sender; David Avery
  • Price: $40,000

The Royal Family certainly knows how to throw a good party. That was the case when King Charles III married Princess Diana back in 1981. Although their wedding ended in divorce, that hasn’t stopped people from trying to recreate the legendary day ever since. Apparently, the pair had multiple wedding cakes for their big day.

One of the many was created by bakers chef S.G. Sender and David Avery, who made the five-tier “official” cake for the day. The towering piece set the royal couple back $40,000 and reportedly weighed over 200 pounds. In 2021, a preserved slice of the cake sold at auction for £1,850 (approximately $2,000).

Sylvia Weinstock’s towering wedding cakes don’t come cheap 

  • Made By: Sylvia Weinstock
  • Price: $3,000

If there’s one thing Sylvia Weinstock knows, it’s how to make some of the most impressive - and expensive - cakes in the world. That was the case when the baker brought her ‘Pretty In Pink’ cake to life for a wedding. The ceremony was held at a prestigious Waldorf Astoria hotel, where the cake was the perfect addition to the day.

The towering creation was a whopping six tiers and was covered in delicate pink flowers. The inside even matched the color scheme, as the cakes were filled with strawberries and raspberries. Apparently, this was all to match the exact shade of the bride’s dress, with the hanging crystals helping to create the perfect photo opportunity.

  • Made By: Carlo’s Bakery
  • Price: $1 million

If you want to take a look at the most expensive cakes that have ever been made, it could be time to take a trip to Carlo’s Bakery. That’s because Buddy Valastro and the team know a thing or two about making out-of-this-world cakes - literally. One of those moments came in 2011 when the bakers were asked to help NASA.

They wanted to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Space Shuttle program, and a cake was the only way forward. It might have cost a staggering $1 million, but the cake was complete with pyrotechnics that made it look like it was about to blast off to space. Thankfully, this shuttle was a lot more delicious than the real thing.

Dan Levy’s hit show served as inspiration for his $20,000 36th birthday cake 

  • Made By: Aggie’s Bakery
  • Price: $20,000

The sitcom ‘Schitt’s Creek’ came from nowhere and quickly earned millions of fans across the globe. The series sadly said goodbye to the small screen in 2020 but has remained a part of many people’s hearts ever since. The best bit? The creators and stars of the show still enjoy everything the series brought to their lives.

The series was created and starred Eugene and Dan Levy - and was the inspiration for the latter’s 36th birthday cake. The cast gathered to pose with the cake in the shape of the show’s starring Rosebud Motel. Dan even captioned his snap with “FIND ME A BETTER CAKE” after Aggie’s Bakery topped things off with their $20,000 creation.

Smithworks created the ultimate birthday cake in the shape of their bottle 

  • Made By: Smithworks
  • Price: $500 - $1,000

He might be a country music star, but that hasn’t stopped Blake Shelton from working on a host of other projects. His drinks company, Smithworks, has taken off in recent years and seen Blake dominate a new industry. The best bit? It seems the company wants to give back to the founder and did just that for Blake’s birthday.

The company spent anywhere from $500 to $1,000 to have a custom cake made in the shape of a Smithworks bottle. Blake took to social media to share the moment with his fans, telling the world it is “the greatest birthday cake ever.” That was all before taking a giant bite out of the top of the cake.

Eddie Murphy’s only wedding was complete with a $25,000 towering cake 

  • Made By: Unknown

Amazingly, despite having ten children, the actor has only been married once - and it ended in divorce in 2006. Still, the big day was complete with an even bigger cake.

No one is entirely sure who made the piece. All we know is it’s estimated to have cost Eddie and Nicole a staggering $25,000 and was multiple tiers tall. As well as towering over the couple, the wedding cake was also decked out with delicate pink and white flowers to bring it to life.

It’s believed 2,000 people gathered at the couple’s wedding reception, where they got to see one of the stand-out features of it all: the cake.

The delicate creation was covered in white fondant and decorated with white crystals and pearls, as well as small brooches to add a touch of sparkle. It’s said the additions boosted the cake’s cost up to a staggering $10 million, easily making Michael’s wedding cake one of the most expensive cakes that have ever been made.

Whatever the case, there’s a chance those thoughts probably ooze style. That’s why so many people were surprised to see the beauty mogul’s 21st birthday cake in 2018.

The party was filled with some big names and included a painted mural of Kylie and her friends, a ball pit filled with hot-pink balls, and Kylie-shaped cookies. The cake?

  • Price: $5,000 - $10,000

Sofía Vergara has become known for her sweet tooth. Maybe that’s why she went all out when it came to her husband’s birthday cake? Investing in an epic cake is one thing, but spending between $5,000 and $10,000 meant Sofía also forked out for one of the most expensive cakes that have ever been made.

Thankfully, Joe Manganiello was treated to quite the party, with performances by Steel Panther. He also got his hands on a birthday cake shaped like Eddie van Halen’s Frankenstrat guitar. No one is sure who brought the incredible piece to life. All we know is Joe called it “awesome” on social media alongside a snap of his 40th birthday cake.

This tiger head cake gets more impressive the longer you look 

  • Made By: Conjurer’s Kitchen
  • Price: $500 - $1,000

Conjurer’s Kitchen is known for creating some incredible cakes. From creepy additions to lifelike bakes and everything in between, the bakery’s tiger head might be one of the most impressive of them all. In fact, a quick glance at the creation could be enough to fool some people that this is a snap of a real big cat.

That’s not all. Creating the cake is one thing, but making a stand strong enough to support the head to make it look like it’s poking out from the bushes is another. All in all, the cake took a lot of work and is thought to have cost anywhere from $500 to $1,000 to bring to life.

The sheer size of this cake alone shows just how much work must have gone into creating a cake for the couple’s big day. It’s only once we look closer that we see the incredible details.

The front is decorated with delicate cherubs, while the detailing on the cathedral makes it look just like the real thing. The cake is also fitted with lights inside to make it look as though it’s merely a shrunken building instead of a sweet treat the couple and their guests get to enjoy at the end of the night.

That’s right; Buddy wanted to make a real-life ‘Transformers’ cake. Of course, if there’s anyone that can do it, it’s the team from ‘Cake Boss.’

It took ten bakers three days to bring the 7,000-pound cake to life. Buddy even worked with a hydraulics expert, so the cake moved and fired flames just like the real thing. As if all of that wasn’t enough, it’s believed the bakery spent between $500,000 and $1 million on one of the most expensive cakes ever.

Kevin Jonas’ wedding cake had even more flavor surprises hiding underneath 

  • Made By: Oheka Castle
  • Price: $3,000 - $5,000

One thing celebrities know how to do is spend an incredible amount of money on their wedding. Kevin Jonas decided to do just that when he walked down the aisle with Danielle Deleasa in 2009. The musician spared no expense on any aspect of the big day, including spending somewhere between $3,000 and $5,000 on the cake alone.

The couple enjoyed a seven-tier chocolate mousse and pistachio-filled cake that was covered in Swarovski crystals for an added touch of bling. The cake was brought to life by Oheka Castle, who has worked with several celebrities over the years and are known for their extravagant - and expensive - sweet treats.

  • Made By: Divine Delicacies

The multiple tiers were all decorated with sparkling fondant, Floyd’s name, and stacks of money. In fact, the dollar bills even featured Floyd’s face. Amazingly, this isn’t the first time Floyd has seen his face on money, as he had it edited onto a $1,000 bill for his birthday cake. It certainly stands out from the crowd.

Game lovers everywhere can enjoy an incredible custom cake for a few hundred dollars 

  • Made By: Cinderella Cakes

Their board game cake is just another on the list. While it might not be the most expensive cake in the world, costing between $300 and $400 still isn’t cheap.

Thankfully, you get a lot for your buck. From the ‘Yahtzee’-inspired middle tier to the ‘Uno’-inspired cake topper, it seems nothing has been left out from this creation. The best bit? The person even got a personalized ‘Scrabble’ banner for their birthday, tying the entire cake together perfectly. Does it get better? That’s what we thought.

A white cake was never an option for Liza Minnelli's fourth wedding

Of course, adding in a host of foliage and delicate flowers was all that was needed to add the perfect amount of class. All in all, it was made by Claire Ptak and reportedly set the couple back an estimated $1,057.

The cake is thought to have set the legend back somewhere between $2,000 and $5,000 and looks a lot more delicious than our sneakers sitting on the shoe rack.

Apparently, it was enough to see Duff work with an old friend, too.

The chef teamed up with NYPD officer Art, who just so happened to play as goalie on Duff’s college hockey team. The pair spent between $1,200 and $1,500 making a black and white vintage police vehicle based on a model used between 1941 and 1989. It almost looks too good to eat - almost.

The white tier doesn’t need height to stand out, as the fact it’s dripping in jewels does that with ease. Every inch of the cake is covered in diamonds and glittering gems, including the cake topper. It’s a delicate piece, yet one that will cost you $130,000 if you want a version of your own.

  • Made By: Sylvia Weinstock
  • Price: $7,000

Some couples seem like their love is written in the stars. Others? They’re a little more unexpected. That was long the case for Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas, but they’ve proven their marriage was to last. After all, they walked down the aisle in 2000 and have been married ever since. It also means their cake didn’t get wasted.

The pair forked out an impressive $7,000 on a cake designed by legendary baker Sylvia Weinstock. The cake stood at ten tiers and was made from buttercream and vanilla. Amazingly, it was so tall that the team had to remove the top two layers of the cake to get it through the door before rebuilding it inside.

It took 13 flavors before BC Jean and Mark Ballas settled on their final choice 

  • Made By: A Sweet Design

Apparently, Jean wanted something “simple” yet “majestic…and beautiful.” Amazingly, they tried 13 flavors before settling on the first. The result? A Sweet Design’s signature flavor of Pink Velvet and Neapolitan.

The red velvet cake was layered with vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate before the entire thing was painted with edible 24-karat gold. Apparently, this was to match the inside of the couple’s wedding invitations. According to the couple, they enjoyed the cake leftovers “the next day,” so we guess the final flavor was - thankfully - a hit.

After all, the plain flavor is already delicious on its own before getting into all the different flavors on the market. What about taking an Oreo and turning it into a giant cake? Now you're talking.

Thankfully, it seems Yolanda Gampp has already done just that and spent somewhere between $1,200 and $1,500 to make her creation. As well as bringing the incredible flavors to life in a supersized version, the talented baker even made the cake look just like the real thing - just giant.

After all, a lot of work goes into bringing each one to life. Thankfully, each one is just as delicious as it looks on the outside and often incorporates floral flavors.

Rose oil is one of Loria’s most common flavors, but how does she decorate them so delicately? That’s by collecting edible flowers before gently pressing them and incorporating them into her designs. It might be no wonder Loria describes herself as a “culinary artist.” After all, each of her cakes is a true work of art.

The design was inspired by a Fabergé egg and made from gold, chocolate, and luxurious drinks. Oh, and it was topped with a real diamond. In the end, the one-of-a-kind piece was bought for £22,000 (approximately $24,000) by Carl Weininger to celebrate his 60th birthday and was used as the centerpiece at a charity ball.

Kaley Cuoco achieved her “spectacular” dream with her chandelier wedding cake 

  • Made By: The Butter End Cakery
  • Price: $11,000

When it comes to wedding cakes, it can be easy to think we’ve seen it all. Maybe that’s why Kaley Cuoco and Ryan Sweeting went for something entirely unexpected for their reception? After all, we can’t say we’ve seen many upside-down cakes before, let alone upside-down cakes that are hanging from the ceiling and completely lit up.

The chandelier-looking cake was created by The Butter End Cakery, which is known for its incredible designs. Kaley confessed the theme for the wedding was “fire and ice” and how she wanted something “spectacular” for her cake.

As well as being one of the most expensive cakes that have ever been made, the NASCAR cake wowed the crowd. It weighed a staggering 2,000 pounds in frosting alone and was made from modeling chocolate, fondant, Rice Krispies, and pound cake.

One of the biggest expenses was the couple’s ten-tier wedding cake, which came in at $20,000. It was certainly quite the centerpiece, as Kim K shook things up with a black and white creation.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are known for breaking royal traditions, which might be why they went against the traditional fruit cake enjoyed by the Royals on their big day. Instead, Meghan and Harry enjoyed a lemon elderflower cake. It was made by Clair Ptak from Violet Cakes in London and was every bit as elegant as the bride.

One on the list is her ‘Eight Is Great’ cake.

The $50,000 cake was for a Manhattan wedding and came with some hidden meanings.

All of this was then covered top to bottom in pink frosting and decorated with matching flowers to complete the look.

Annabelle de Vetten is the brains behind it all and was the one in charge of making the spooky Anatomy Cake. Amazingly, it’s just one of several creepy cakes Conjurer’s Kitchen has brought to life throughout the years.

The cake is described as being more than a dessert and is instead a “main feature” to showcase at any event. While the back looks like a black layered cake, the front reveals the spooky side of it all. Here, various cake versions of anatomy have been brought to life in an almost too realistic way.

Princess Eugenie opted for red velvet cake instead of traditional fruit cake 

  • Made By: Sophie Cabot
  • Price: $10,000

It seems Princess Eugenie wanted to jump on the recent trend of breaking royal tradition when she walked down the aisle with Jack Brooksbank in 2018. Instead of using a fruit cake, Eugenie opted for a red velvet and chocolate creation, not that you would necessarily know from the outside. Still, there’s a reason fruit cakes are usually used.

That’s because it’s traditional in the Royal Family to serve a layer of the couple’s wedding cake at their first child’s christening, meaning they need something that will last. Thankfully, Eugenie’s cake was just as elegant. Apparently, 53 packs of butter, 44 pounds of sugar, 33 pounds of flour, and 400 eggs went into this $10,000 creation.

Carlo’s Bakery made a Sesame Street cake that was so long it had to be dismantled 

  • Made By: Carlo’s Bakery

That’s because Buddy and the rest of Carlo’s Bakery created the entire set of ‘Sesame Street, complete with all our favorite characters.

In fact, it’s so realistic that it might be tough to tell it apart from the real thing. According to the baker, it was all for a medieval-themed Halloween party.

It didn’t take long for them to settle on chocolate fudge cake before carefully sculpting it to look just like something that would have been brought back from hunting. Even the apple in the boar’s mouth looks like it’s been plucked from a tree. All that detail is why this cake cost somewhere between $5,000 and $10,000.

This might look like an egg carton, but it’s much more than meets the eye 

  • Made By: Luke Vincentini

Yes, that’s really cake and not a real egg carton. 2020 marked the year of people trying to create the most realistic-looking cakes ever, and many hail Luke for the trend.

Apparently, Hansen’s Cakes has long been a favorite of the family, so it might be no surprise Khloé used the bakery for her wedding.

The five-tier cake was a little different from other traditional cakes, as it was decorated with black and white additions. That didn’t stop the five-tier cake from standing out for all the right reasons. The flavor? That was chocolate buttercream covered with white chocolate chips and ultimately cost the newlyweds a staggering $80,000 to bring to life.

Thankfully, Custom Cakes and Confections did just that when they made an incredible ‘Up’ cake. The closer you look, the more details you might notice.

  • Price: $16,000

The pair opted for Hindu and Western ceremonies to celebrate their different cultures, but all of that was blown out of the water when the world got to see the couple’s $16,000 wedding cake.

That’s because Nick and Priyanka opted for a cake that was inspired by the palace where they tied the knot - and was every bit as impressive as people imagined.

After all, that’s a huge budget to spend on tiers and the decorations that have brought this to life. Like many other traditional cakes, this one is completely white, apart from some gold detailing at the bottom.

That doesn’t mean it blends into the background. Oh no, being covered from top to bottom in piped flowers means it’s a touch of detail that somehow fits the theme and stands out from the rest of the room with ease. Still, we’re not sure that many people have the budget to recreate it for themselves.

It seems they wanted a show-stopping wedding cake to showcase the event, and that’s precisely what they got with this five-tier creation. All in all, it’s thought to have cost $52.7 million, thanks to the number of jewels and diamonds across the cake. It’s a huge spend, but one that certainly comes with a lot of sparkle.

The two-tier cake was covered in red fondant and delicately piped with silver details. So how does it cost $1.3 million? That’s all thanks to the real jewels used across the cake.

However, it seems one jewelry designer in Tokyo decided to pay their respect to the continent and the diamonds found across the land. Still, it wasn’t the cake that made things so expensive.

The $5 million price tag came thanks to the diamonds added to the cake. Apparently, there are 2,000 of the jewels across the entire thing, each placed to represent where diamond mines are found across Africa. It’s a unique way to pay honor to the land that helps their business, and one that comes with quite the price tag.

  • Made By: Nahird Parsa from La pâtisserie Artistique

That was the case in 2006 when Nahird Parsa from La pâtisserie Artistique decided to make a cake for the Luxury Bridal Show in Beverly Hills. Apparently, it was all about showing off their skills and what money can buy.

With one layer covered in gold leaf and diamonds nestled among the frosting, it might be a good thing that no one asked for a slice of this creation. Plus, we’re not sure we’d want to be the ones to ruin a $20 cake. At least it twinkled underneath the lights as everyone got to enjoy the sight.

The most expensive cake in the world title goes to a runway cake
