The confection is displayed in the front window of The Home Bakery on Main St. in Downtown Rochester.
“I chose to create a Taylor Swift, inspired window because, honestly, we’re a bunch of Swifties in here! But beyond the fun of celebrating her music, I really admire her. Taylor isn’t just an incredibly talented artist, she’s a brilliant businesswoman, a master storyteller, and someone who has built a global community through creativity, resilience, and authenticity, stated Heather Tocco, owner of Home Bakery.
The cake includes eight sheets of rice crispies, 30 pounds of fondant, 12 quarts of buttercream, plus 75 hours and a team of 5 designers to bring the confection to life.
You didn’t miss your chance to see it, so shake it off!
The life-size cake of Swift will take center stage in the bakery’s window for the next two months, serving as a true showstopper. It will remain on display until mid-November.
“At The Home Bakery, we’ve always believed in using our windows as a canvas to tell stories and celebrate cultural moments that bring people together. From football to pop culture, it’s our way of connecting with our community and sparking joy. With Taylor’s latest album release, it felt like the perfect time to highlight someone I view as a powerful role model, especially for young women, showing that success comes from hard work, imagination, and the courage to reinvent yourself,” says Tocco.
