Life is a blast when you know what you’re doing. And one thing Khayri Ayers knows with great authority is making cake, putting playful spins on the craft at his bakery, CakeBoi.
“Your Favorite Baker’s Favorite Baker” greets you from behind the CakeBoi counter in black graffiti tag lettering. There’s a platter of jumbo-sized sugar cookies imprinted with Biggie’s face (we hear Eazy-E versions are sometimes available), and the refrigerator holds layers of cake and frosting in Mason jars labeled with Tupac stickers.
Ayers learned to bake as a kid from his grandmother and perfected his skills under the tutelage of his father. Today he serves roughly 10 flavors daily at CakeBoi — a rotating lineup of classics like chocolate, funfetti and red velvet, plus fresh takes like vanilla mocha, blueberry and key lime — with the best sellers being coconut-pineapple and strawberry blonde. We’re also fans of the white chocolate-flavored blue velvet and the carrot cake, prepared simply without nuts or raisins; just four layers of spiced cake and whipped cream cheese frosting.
“I’M YOUNG, SO I’M HIP TO WHAT THE NEXT GENERATION IS DOING.”
