Will Miami eat at this chain restaurant so we can try Foodgod’s weird unicorn dessert?

Foodgod has moved on from his birthday cake debacle in Miami.

As fans of the “Keeping up with the Kardashians” star may already know, his giant $10,000 cake that bestie Kim ordered for him toppled over into a South Miami parking lot. Many thought it was a stunt for the E! show; he, however, took the blame, saying he rushed the men who were carrying it to his Rolls outside.

No matter.

These days, Foodgod, aka Jonathan Cheban, is turning his attention to the menu at TGI Fridays, despite the fact that he’s a fixture at some of Miami’s hottest restaurants such as Dave Grutman’s Swan and Papi Steak.

The dessert he created for the casual restaurant chain, starting March 17, is called the Unicornfetti Cake, and it certainly sounds and looks — how can we say? — festive.

A release describes the decked out treat as slathered in “party-colored vanilla ice cream, coated with warm, decadent white chocolate [and] lollipop candy crunchies and color-changing sugar crystals.”

Cheban brought his cute yet complicated rainbow mashup to “The Wendy Williams Show” earlier this week.

“It’s really beautiful,” the TV host said of the polychromatic oddity which is served in a little skillet.

“What is this thing over here?” she asked, pointing to the cup of crunchies and crystals on the side.

“This is going to be the most Instagrammable thing of the summer!” Cheban shouted to the audience. “Because people need some fun these days! Everything is so stressful!”

“Thank you, God,” says Williams with her mouth full before cutting to a commercial break.

Order the Unicornfetti Cake at all five Miami TGIFridays locations starting March 17.
