Jennifer Lopez just celebrated her 48th birthday with a joint party with boyfriend Alex Rodriguez, but her birthday seemed just a little bit sweeter.

The superstar entertainer (and Silicon Valley entrepreneur) had a cake covered in edible gold and Swarovski crystals. Miami cake maker Divine Delicacies Custom Cakes posted pictures and videos of the sweet treat. According to the company, the six-tier birthday cake had more than 10,000 Swarovski crystals on it with a custom made design of her name featured on both sides.

Rodriguez got his own birthday cake as well. The four-layer cake had its own crystals and art deco theme. The retired New York Yankees baseball player has more reason to celebrate than only his birthday; he’s well on his way to building out his own company. (For more on that, read Fortune’s exclusive interview with Rodriguez.)

Lopez’s birthday falls on July 24, while Rodriguez’s is on July 27.

However, that wasn’t the end of the couple’s extravagant cakes. Devine Delicacies posted about yet another cake that Rodriguez surprised Lopez with. This one had just three layers but still came with Swarovski crystals and 24-karat edible gold details. It also featured handmade lion heads in the design. Divine Delicacies even shared the flavor inside of the third cake—chocolate, which they said is Lopez’s favorite.
