Can You Taste Your Favorite Perfume? This TikTok Baker Is Making That Happen

Have you ever wondered what your favorite perfume would taste like? We know we have – especially since gourmand fragrances have become wildly popular. But we’ve never let the intrusive thoughts lead us to spritz our signature scent in our mouths. (Seriously, don’t do that.)

Still, it can be pretty tempting considering there are plenty of perfumes that contain edible notes: Aromas of whipped cream, vanilla, chocolate, caramel, and honey claim center stage in many best-selling scents. Kassie Mendieta of @IBakeMistakes on social media, a lifelong baker, freelance recipe developer, and fragrance lover, began to recognize similarities between perfume and cake and decided to indulge her imagination. She put her baking skills to the test by crafting cakes inspired by delectable perfumes. And what started as a creative outlet has become a viral TikTok series she calls “eating perfume?”
