Isaac Mizrahi wants to do it all. The designer is launching a new collection for QVC which includes, among clothes, handbags, and teapots, the Isaac Mizrahi cheesecake—a tartan cheesecake with a chocolate-cookie crust.
The Isaac Mizrahi cheesecake isn’t the only dessert creation in the QVC collection, however. He is also offering cookies and a banana nut loaf. Does it seem strange to you that Mizrahi is combining plates, bedding, clothes, and cakes? Well as he tells WWD, for him the creative process is always the same, regardless of what he’s creating.
