Blake Livelyis showing off her impressive baking skills.
The actress, 36, recently teamed up with French pastry chef Cédric Grolet to make a decadent cake. Grolet shareda videoon Instagram Sunday of Lively getting down to business in the kitchen, set to Fergie’s hit “Glamorous.”
The clip — which Lively also posted on her Instagram page — kicks off with Grolet handing theGossip Girlstar an industrial-size whisk mixer attachment, which she placed in a large bowl before taking a moment to hug the chef. However, while Lively’s back was turned, the bowl tipped over, though Grolet quickly caught it with a laugh.
Next, the pair poured the cake batter into a large rectangular pan, giving Lively a chance to display her talents for perfectly leveling off the batter with a metal spatula before baking. Once the cake was out of the oven, Lively expertly cut out round layers and, with the magic of editing, snapped her fingers to make an array of colorful berries appear.
“@cedricgroletand@blakelivelycreated together a cake! She surprised me so much with her talent!” Grolet wrote in the post’s caption, praising Lively’s culinary skills. “What do you think about it? charlotte aux fruits xxl with her drinks so fresh@bettybuzz@bettybooze🍾#cedricgrolet#blakelively.”
