Kyle Richards’ daughter Portia is already a budding makeup artist. In fact, Kyle even spilled that her mini-me started doing her friends’ makeup looks for Coachella. So when Portia turned 10, it was only fitting that she had a Coachella themed birthday party — “Kidchella,” if you will. The party, which was held at a local trampoline park, had tie dye tapestries, a palm tree backdrop, and actual tents. But the most extravagant part of the day was the dessert table. Party-goers were treated to colorful cupcakes, a table full of sweet treats, and a two-tiered tie dye cake that was decorated with a tent, feathers, a dream catcher, and gold piping. The only thing missing was Beyoncé, TBH.
Melissa Gorga has had her fair share of over-the-top desserts, and luckily not all of them have ended up on the ground (like her birthday cake in Boca Raton, courtesy of Siggy Flicker). She loves going over the top for her kids’ celebrations, whether it’s towering milkshakes at Black Tap for her daughter Antonia or a blue-themed candy table for her son Joey’s communion celebration. But Melissa’s own birthday cakes are works of art as well. The Season 7 premiere of RHONJ showed off Melissa's stunning silver cake that was decorated in white flowers and rhinestones.
Kim Zolciak-Biermann spilled on her Instagram Story that she has a tendency to call people “sugar tits,” so her daughter Brielle Biermann decided to bring her mom’s favorite saying to life. She arranged a naughty cookie cake for her mom’s 40th birthday, which featured an X-rated recreation of Kim’s catchphrase in pink and white icing.
Even though Teresa Giudice has undergone an amazing physical transformation for bodybuilding competitions, the RHONJ pal still enjoys an extravagant dessert! When her daughter Audriana turned 9, she got her a gorgeous cupcake spread (arranged in a "9" shape, of course) with hot pink icing and pink sugar roses.
Heather Dubrow loves celebrating…as long as no one touches her cake. You might remember her infamous fight with Alexis Bellino’s friend Sarah after she picked part of a sugar bow off Heather’s cake to celebrate her officially taking Terry Dubrow’s last name. With that fight long in the past, Heather has had many extravagant (untouched) cakes since then. Some of her most notable confections include a cake made to look like vegetables for fellow RHOC fitness junkie Tamra Judge and a magical Wizard of Oz-themed cake for her daughter Katarina's 12th birthday, complete with a yellow brick road, the city skyline of Oz, and red slippers.
As a Halloween Eve baby, it’s pretty much a requirement for Gretchen Rossi to have a scary cake for her birthday every year. In 2018, she took to Instagram Stories to show off her latest treat…or trick? She was surprised with a zombie cake complete with blood-colored red icing and a green zombie hand sticking out of the top. The lavish cake looked somewhat appetizing to eat…but only if you dared.
There’s only one Kandi Burruss-approved way to celebrate a birthday, and it’s with a birthday cake that has your name written boldly across the front (so no one forgets who they're celebrating, of course). The RHOA mom went above and beyond to celebrate her daughter Riley’s 16th birthday with a cake that was fit for a princess…literally. The two-tiered cake was dripping in gold icing and glitter, and had a massive gold crown at the top.
We already know Tamra Judge is so dedicated to eating healthy that her pal Heather Dubrow gave her a vegetable-inspired cake for her birthday. But Tamra wasn’t afraid to indulge just a little bit for her daughter, Sophia. The RHOC mom helped her daughter celebrate her birthday with a red heart-shaped cake with her name spelled out in white letters. But this wasn’t just an ordinary cake — it was a smash cake! Tamra shared an Instagram video of Sophia using a hammer to crack open the top of the dessert, which was filled with another sweet treat inside: macarons!
