And for one Instagrammer, it’s dessert.

Excuse us while we gather ourselves because this is perfection! 

In short: it’s the Black girl magic moment we never knew we needed. What makes the design such a standout is the black icing. Not only is it shaped into the form of an afro;  the swirl details perfectly emulate texture, too. It’s simple, but obviously impactful. 

We’re pretty big fans of savory food, but this cake is almost too pretty to eat. Let us know if you agree!
