Artist buys Trump souvenir wedding cake for nearly $2K at auction

A souvenir wedding cake from President Trump and first lady Melania Trump’s 2005 wedding was bought by an artist last week for $1,800.

Andres Serrano purchased the miniature wedding cake at Boston-based RR Auctions, according to the Art Newspaper.

Known for using unorthodox materials such as his own urine, the artist told the outlet that he isn’t sure what he will do with the now 14-year-old cake. {mosads}

“Artists work in mysterious ways. You never know what they’re up to. I don’t like to talk about things until I’m ready to talk,” he said.

Serrano photographed Trump in 2003 for a series called “America,” which began shortly after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

The artist, born to an immigrant father from Honduras and a mother of Afro-Cuban descent, declined to criticize Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign.

“I never speak ill of people who’ve posed for me.” Serrano told The Guardian.

The 3-inch tall chocolate truffle cake he purchased was one of the wedding favors given out to nearly 350 guests when Trump, then a New York business mogul, married former model Melania Knauss.

The cake, with a sugar-spun buttercream rose and gold flakes, was sold at the auction along with the original paper box that was monogramed with “M D T.” The minimum bid began at $200. 

The mini cake was inspired by the ceremony’s seven-tier wedding cake that cost an estimated $50,000 but was not actually served to guests, according to RR Auction.

“The 200-pound yellow sponge cake was flavored with orange zest, filled with butter cream, soaked in Grand Marnier, and adorned with 2,000 individually constructed sugar-spun flowers — the centerpiece cake was not served to guests due to the intricate wire infrastructure.”

The lavish 2005 wedding in Palm Beach, Fla., was a star-studded affair with guests that included former President Clinton and Trump’s 2016 rival Hillary Clinton, as well as Jeff Zucker, Heidi Klum and Shaquille O’Neal, among others.
