Strawberry cake derby shoes

Tal Maslavi

Part of the graduation collection, 2022.

Black derby shoes with a handmade sliced sponge cake plastic insert on the right toe box, in the flavours: Vanilla, Chocolate or Strawberry? In production in 2024.

Maslavi: ‘I made the shoes thinking about life today, it is not clear what is real and what is not, the image is not clear. For me, cakes have become a symbol of fakeness. Because of the hundreds of videos and chefs making cakes that looked like something real.’
