Summary
- Baker Katie McEvoy created plaid cakes for Guest in Residence store opening.
- Each of the four cakes symbolized a different store location.
- McEvoy also baked Gigi Hadid's 30th birthday cake.

Baker Katie McEvoy recently shared insights into her creation of the distinctive hand-piped, plaid-designed cakes for Gigi Hadid's Guest in Residence store opening on October 29, 2026. These four cakes were meticulously designed to represent the brand's four store locations: Manhattan's Upper East Side and NoHo, and Beverly Hills and Malibu.
Each cake embraced colors and flavors associated with its corresponding location, drawing inspiration from the plaid patterns found in Guest in Residence's cashmere collection. McEvoy described the multi-day process, noting that piping the plaid detail alone took about 30 minutes per cake.
In addition to the store opening cakes, McEvoy also created Gigi Hadid's 30th birthday cake in May 2025. This cake was notably featured in photographs that publicly confirmed Hadid's relationship with Bradley Cooper, adding another layer of interest to McEvoy's culinary artistry.
