“This is a dream come true. I can’t believe you made this cake for me while the bakery is closed. It means more to me than you know, and when we hopefully meet some day you will truly know that there almost isn’t an episode I’ve missed. 10/10 would be a Carlo’s intern whenever needed. 😆 Grateful, honored, your biggest fan,” Hadid said at the time.
In arecent interviewwithi-D Magazine, that took place in the spring but was published this month, the mom of one talked about her then-upcoming birthday festivities which were set to include another Cake Boss confection.
“OK, well first of all, I’m obsessed withCake Boss. I’ve been watching him since I was ten, and he made my birthday cake for me last year, and I cried. Like, I actually started to cry. This year, in the theme of my giant bagel cake from last year, he’s making a giant wedge of cheese, but it’s a cake,” she revealed to the outlet at the time.

The model also went on to explain her love for pasta and how the Italian cuisine inspired some of the decor in her house - including the famed pasta drawers in her kitchen.
“My pasta that’s in the pasta drawers (that are for show) are actually made with a glue type thing that keeps them preserved. The girl that I collaborated with to make these, her Instagram is@saltyseattle. She actually makes kits that you can buy and make your own pasta, and she colors all the pasta naturally,” she explained. “So, I think the blue is spirulina. Each color is made with a natural coloring - like, the red is beet, the yellow is turmeric. And she has a book where she teaches you how to make each color. I’ve followed her for years and it was always a dream to have some of her work preserved.”
Concluding she added, “I look at them every day and I love them. They spark joy.”
