It's not a cake....it's a story!!

Over time i have realised that every time someone calls me up for a cake, it's not for a cake. It's to create a fantasy. A fantasy which they have dreamt about. and i am only too happy to make them come alive.Well, in most cases this is what happens but there are times when it's not a fantasy or a dream, it's a story. 

A couple of months ago i got a mail from someone from another corner of the world asking if i would design her wedding cake. The only condition was,  this was not to be a regular wedding cake but something which would tell their story. How exciting!!!

So, here goes their story...he is from northern India and she is from the east. Both lived in two different continents but were now soon going to become one. A young couple very much in love, they loved to travel and in one of their trips he popped the question, in Capadocia, Turkey. Otherwise known for the hot air balloons.  She runs a travel company and they love the beach and love taking pictures. Together they had travelled to a few countries. Besides this, there was one thing he was passionate about and that was is running, he loved taking part in marathons. This was their story and i had to create something which would have all these elements. I was truly excited and thought that this is what every wedding cake should be about. The couples story!!

So after exchanging many emails, design ideas and concepts, i designed the Bon Voyage: A love story. A story which was told in a different format where one actually enjoyed eating his/ her own words!!
