In a video shared on Instagram, the music producer offered fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the couple's intimate celebration. They were seen cooking a delicious birthday dinner together. The video showed a very hands-on Selena in the kitchen. She started by kneading and rolling out pasta dough, pausing to watch in wonder as the machine flattened it. Once the noodles were cooked, the couple took a moment to sit down and savour cacio e pepe.

Benny was also seen preparing the filling for fiori di zucca, Italian stuffed squash blossoms. He mixed soft cheese with lemon zest and herbs. The birthday celebration continued with the couple toasting with wine as Selena layered thin slices of eggplant with marinara sauce to assemble eggplant parmesan.
“My baby makes the best eggplant parmigiana. You scoop a little bit then you put it on a slice of bread. That's the best thing I've tasted in Italy so far and you made it," Benny said in the video.
