Even though I am a student, with little amount of money, I
love baking. Mainly cakes or cupcakes. I enjoy drawing out what I want the
topping to look like and using sugar paste and icing to create the intricate
objects to go on top.
Looking on Google I like to see how different cakes are made
and unusual ones. I was not prepared to stumble across an article about a model
eating her handbag on a New York Subway. Her bag was a designer Chanel bag, or
was it? Actually no it was a chocolate cake made to look exactly the same as a
Chanel bag. What seems as though it was leather it actually was quilted-effect
icing. The handle and Chanel logo was real.
Michelle Olson and Claudia Silva from the International
Culinary Centre based in So-Ho were the makers of this creation. According to Mail Online it was created to
advertise for New York fashion week. Not only is this a fantastic way to
advertise New York fashion week, but it is a brilliant way to advertise Chanel
and also the International Culinary Centre.
As we know social media is the way forward to advertise now
so doing a crazy stunt like this is perfect to draw attention to a particular brand,
product etc.
This is living proof that Fashion can involve food.
