Elegant Indian Fashion.
44 talented cake artists from across the globe have come together to celebrate the beautiful and sophisticated designs of Indian fashion. Each artist created a cake inspired by a haute couture Indian outfit that is typically worn for elegant occasions. One can see how these outfits can easily translate into a gorgeous cake design with their rich colours and intricate decorations.

My piece was inspired by the deep rich colours of burgundy on this outfit with a hint of the turquoise coming through and finally contrasted by Magnolias. I chose this magnificent flower as it is now Springtime in UK and they are all in glorious bloom. I called my creation “Claret Springtime”. I’ve hand-painted the gold and also used Sugar Lace on borders.

The top magnolia is sugar. The other two are cold porcelain
