Everyone’s fave Kardashian sis, Khloé, has been busted by TMZ, trying to pass off gourmet bakery pies as her own.
Turns out the pies Khloé photographed and posted as part of her holiday spread are actually pies from LA bakery Sweet Lady Jane. Whatevs.
Here’s Khloé’s fake-baked spread. She posted it with this caption: “I love testing myself and seeing what I can accomplish and actually make successfully! Now let’s pray it tastes as great as they look!” Pretty funny stuff.
And here are the pies from Sweet Lady Jane.
They’re identical. Nailed.
