This cake was made while attending the most amazing class conducted by the best, Priyanka Arora Nayak from Polka Dots Cakes Acadamy.

The Christmas season has always been the best time of the year for me and the class being held somewhere around the same time was enough inspiration to create something this special. What was really stuck on my mind was sculpting that santa face on my cake which was nothing less than a dream; until Priyanka gave me the guidance and made it look so effortless..I still can’t get over how it turned out.. The Santa was the hero of this cake And all i knew when I started off was tht he would be a part of it..Everyother thing on the cake fell in place eventually..The bottom tier was a stool which has a rich gold bas relief reflected by the lights used underneath. The next tier was airbrushed with gold and the hand sculpted santa was placed..followed by a tier covered in red petals and then a tiers with mixed media( stenciling a script; hand painted bird; and many other mediums used) and the last there was a Christmas Bauble..

While I was at this cake; every Christmas I remember through my life; flashed back in front of me..I could here Carols playing in my head..i could feel the spirit..The Yuletide spirit..which never fails to give me the adrenal rush to create somethg exceptional..
