Wynn’s Master Cake Artist Creates A Wynn Wonderland Made Of Gingerbread
Flora Aghababyan, chief cake designer for Wynn Las Vegas and Encore, has skillfully created a 3-foot gingerbread replica of the signature bronze building surrounded by the boutiques of Wynn and Encore Esplanades (Photo credit: Eric Jamison/Studio J Inc).
This entirely edible masterpiece was handcrafted from 4,500 gingerbread tiles, rolled fondant and sugar. The confection weighs more than 295 pounds and took 21 days to construct. The turrets, facades and towers all house various Wynn and Encore retailers, with their logos meticulously reproduced in sugar icing and fondant. A few of the gingerbread shops included are Brioni, Cartier, CHANEL, Chloé, Chopard, Dior, Hermés, Loro Piana, Louis Vuitton, Nicholas Kirkwood, Oscar de la Renta, Swim, and Wynn and Company Watches.
