“Multi-layered. Decorated. And I need to ask Olympia what this means…But, isn’t that beautiful?” This was Alexis Ohanian in 2023 as he marvelled over an intricate cake made by Olympia, his five year-old daughter at that time. While initially puzzled by its intricate designs, Ohanian soon realized Olympia’s incredible skill for creating cakes; at age seven now, Olympia is considered an expert baker to his great delight!
As part of Alexis Ohanian’s 37th birthday celebrations in 2020 amidst COVID-19 pandemic, Olympia took her inaugural cupcake bite during Ohanian’s 37th birthday celebrations, immortalized in an adorable post shared by Alexis that showed his two-year-old enjoying this sweet treat. Later that same year she showcased an elegant freshly baked sponge cake to rave reviews from Serena Williams herself while also showing her playful creativity with Hello Kitty-shaped mold cake resting upon it!
Since then, Olympia has continued to impress with her culinary skills, hinting at a future possibly in the kitchen. From making pizza with perfectly sprinkled cheese to crafting “bright red waffles,” cooking breakfast, and baking cookies, her talents know no bounds. Recently, Ohanian showcased another of Olympia’s exceptional cakes, signaling her growing mastery in the art of baking.
Olympia’s Culinary Creations
A recent highlight shared by Ohanian was a ‘freshly baked’ cupcake with a golden top and a smooth, white cream layer, showcasing Olympia’s fine skills. At 41, Alexis, himself an enthusiast in cake baking, couldn’t be more proud of his daughter’s evolving culinary talents. Their kitchen has witnessed many such moments, including an attempt at a homemade chocolate cake using an AI-generated recipe, where Olympia’s creative touch with the frosting was particularly noteworthy.
One of her most special creations was a cake celebrating the immense success of Reddit’s IPO, incorporating Hershey’s Milk & Chocolate atop a Tutti Frutti base, finished with sprinkles and red heart-shaped creams. This cake, shared by Ohanian on his IG Stories, was a testament to Olympia’s love and creativity.
Kitchen memories for the Ohanian household go beyond cooking; memories such as their beloved pancake mornings come flooding back! Serena Williams often recalls Alexis creating alphabet letters on Olympia’s pancakes as part of their unique “Papa Pancakes” tradition and helping Olympia learn to read in her own special way.
Creating Memories Together
Ohanian has shown great affection towards his daughters through baking and cooking moments shared together; these special times highlight not only his role as an entrepreneur but also as a caring father who finds time for creating lasting memories with them. These shared experiences — beloved among fans — demonstrate the joy and companionship shared during family activities such as baking or making treats together.
