The Heat's red velvet, cream cheese and vanilla rum cake, which the bakery started working on weeks in advance, included a six-tiered tower topped with a round cake basketball covered in 36,000 Swarovski crystals.
A second cake tower was a 5-tier replica of the NBA's Larry O'Brien trophy, painted in 24 karat edible gold paint and topped with a Miami Heat championship hat made of sugar. Both elements sat atop a sheet cake that resembled AmericanAirlines Arena's hardwood floor.
"We started bedazzling the basketball 2-3 weeks ago," Laura Candeau of Divine Delicacies told Hot Hot Hoops. "Yes, we believed they would win and we had faith in our team."
