Whether it’s the threaded rods in my swing cakes or the precision needed for a topsy-turvy angle, I build these skeletons from scratch to make sure they travel safely and stand tall. It’s all about mixing stable engineering with delicate sugar work, and yes, sometimes that means a few prototypes before the final reveal. ### Engineering Your Dream Cake People often ask how I get a cake to 'float' or tilt without collapsing. It’s not magic—it’s structure. When you order a gravity-defying design, I’m not just baking; I’m designing a frame. I use food-safe hardware like threaded rods, nuts, and wooden bases to build a skeleton that holds everything in place. ### Why This Matters In a city like Delhi, the weather can be brutal on fondant and whipped cream. Whether I’m making a swing cake or a topsy-turvy piece, structural integrity is non-negotiable. I use concrete-like ganache ratios to cement the cake to the rods, ensuring that whether your party is in a ballroom or a living room, the cake stays exactly how you saw it in the sketches. ### My Process I treat every project as a partnership. If you bring a Pinterest idea, I’ll tell you what’s physically possible and what 'jugaad' we need to make it work. * **Design Phase:** We decide on the theme—like my signature 'Gullu' teddy bears or a specific childhood memory. * **Structural Planning:** I determine the internal support needed. * **The Bake:** Everything I make is 100% eggless, so you don't have to compromise on taste for the sake of the design. I’m based in Laxmi Nagar, but I work with clients all over Delhi NCR. These cakes take time—often a couple of days just for the structure and drying times—so please reach out well in advance. ## About Dolce by Akshika Hi, I'm Akshika.
