Ingredients

Cake premix - 2 cups & Water - 1 cup
Whipped cream & Sugar syrup
Electric blue and Sky blue food gel
Edible gold dust & Oil
White sugar balls & Oddy Ecobake

Directions

Prepare the cake batter by mixing cake premix with water. Transfer the cake batter into a cake mould lined with Oddy Ecobake. Bake the cake in a preheated kadai for 40 minutes.
Once the cake is baked and cooled, divide it into three equal parts. Place the first layer of the cake on a cake board, apply whipping cream to it, and spread well.
Repeat the same process for the second and third layers. After crumb-coating the cake, refrigerate it for 10 minutes. Once the cake is set, frost the cake completely with whipped cream.
Mix sky blue and electric food gel with whipped cream to get a shaded blue color. With a palette knife, make uneven v-patterns all over the cake as shown.
Apply edible gold and oil (gold paint) to the cake's borders. Make irregular patterns on the sides of the cake with the brush. Decorate the cake with white sugar balls.
