Made this cake unexpectedly on my visit to U.S for my cousin’s wedding. I had carried no tools with me..and picked up whatever I could get my hands on at a local cake supply shop and at Michaels.
Since it was a Indo- western wedding I wanted to give it a Indian look and showcase the Indian tradition of mehendi and dholi in the cake with minimal access to whatever tools I had.
The base cake- A Chocolate caramel Oreo cake- depicts the bride and bridegroom’s wedding attire.
The 2nd tier is a chocolate rum infused chocolate praline cake with mehendi design which is hand piped with royal icing and then painted.
The 3rd tier too is a rum infused choclate praline cake depicting the traditional Dholi.
