Oprah shared videos of the cake being made and even filmed herself picking edible flowers from her garden to decorate the masterpiece.

Gayle was blown away by the cake, telling her Instagram fans: "A YELLOW birthday! With one of the prettiest & tastiest cakes thanx to swipe left chef @thomasjraquel & @oprah who set a yellow table to make it extra special & of course all my favourites (@kirbybump & @willgb3) even baby Luca put on a yellow outfit!"

The triple-tiered lemon yellow cake was truly stunning, featuring yellow and maroon flowers scattered around the exterior and a 'happy birthday' sign on the top. Yellow is clearly Gayle's favourite colour!
