Jennifer Aydin has a long history of putting on some unforgettable celebrations for her children — and her son Justin’s latest birthday was no exception. The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member recently threw her eldest child an amazing 16th birthday party, complete with a epic, music-themed cake.

Jennifer took to Instagram to share a look at the incredibly lavish confection. As captured in the photo below, the intricately decorated dessert featured two tiers: a top layer in the shape of a boombox and a bottom layer designed to look like a blue brick wall adorned with music notes and Justin’s initials.

This year‘s party didn’t seem like most for a lot of reasons. I hope you enjoyed it all the same. Happy birthday to my number one! And Thank you to @palermos.bakery and @leighann815 for this amazing cake!!!” Jennifer wrote alongside the photo.


Jennifer also shared several other snapshots from the festivities, which took place at the Dream Downtown in New York City.  “Justin’s swag 16,” she captioned one picture.

This isn’t the only cake that Justin got for his milestone birthday, although it’s certainly the most elaborate. The teen previously celebrated at home with his family by blowing out the candles on two other desserts.
