Sculpted and Themed 3D Cakes
Mom's artistry brought to life. We turn your favorite characters, hobbies, and festival themes into 3D edible sculptures right here in our Bandra kitchen.
We love a creative challenge, like this custom Labubu cake. My mom sculpted these popular art toy figures by hand, using buttercream piping to create their signature fluffy texture. It's a true collector's item you can eat.
Celebrating Janmashtami with a cake that tells a story. This Makhan Chor cake features a hand-piped matki (pot) overflowing with "butter," an edible flute, and a real peacock feather. It’s a perfect example of how we create cakes for every festival.
About this collection
We do not just bake, we build. Whether it is a hand-sculpted Labubu figure or a detailed Makhan Chor matki, we use food-safe dowels and dense sponge cakes to ensure your cake holds its shape. Because these designs require precise carving and ganache work, we recommend planning at least a week ahead so we can map out the structure and ensure every detail, down to the last pearl, is perfect.
For these 3D cakes, we use dense sponges like chocolate or vanilla to provide a solid base for carving. We avoid lighter fillings to prevent any structural collapse. For protruding elements like ears or handles, we often use Rice Krispie treats wrapped in fondant for stability.
Everything gets covered in a sharp-edge ganache crumb coat before we add the final fondant layer and hand-sculpted details. Since we are a small home bakery, these projects are limited to what Mom and I can hand-craft with care. If you have a specific character, logo, or object in mind, share the reference with us, and we will let you know how we can adapt it into a cake that is as delicious as it is stable.
We deliver these delicate creations across the Mumbai Metropolitan Area with extra care, or you can pick them up directly from our Bandra workshop.
