Last week, Beverly Hills celebrated its centennial birthday in much in the fashion that many would expect from the lavish and showy town. To be fair, it was a big birthday, so that kind of warrants a 15,000-slice, 4,000-pound birthday cake that recreated the City Hall tower and Rodeo Drive. Did we mention that the replica of the tower and Rodeo Drive was on Rodeo Drive? According to a release, the ten-foot-tall, 20-foot-long cake was the centerpiece of the block party the city threw itself, and likely destroyed many a diet. Attests a rep for the event, "It was all gone in 2 hours."
