The Peruvian Ñusta cake topper

The Peruvian Ñusta cake topper

This cake was inspired in representing and sharing a little be of my country. So, one of the most representative characters of the Inca Culture was “The Ñusta”.
The Ñusta was Quechua name for the Queens and Princesses in the Inca Empire of Peru. Actually, the tradition of celebrating the Feast of the Pachamama (Mother Earth) continues in Peru. In this feast 2 women are chosen, one oldest woman who plays the role of Mother Earth and one young virgin woman or ñusta, symbolizing the land that has not been fertilized yet.
I hope you like it!
