Zilly Rosen: Presidential Cupcakes February 14, 2009

Artist and baker Zilly Rosen's medium of choice isn't paint or clay; she prefers flour, frosting and fondant. In honor of Presidents' Day, Zilly will create a portrait, A New Birth of Freedom, made entirely of cupcakes, which celebrates President Barack Obama's inauguration and the 200th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln's birth. View Zilly's temporary installation, comprised of more than 5,000 cupcakes.
