Izzati & Luqman Wedding (Perlis)

Salam.

Dear all, this post is a compilation of a good friend's favor:- making her wedding cake and my sister's wish:- visiting Langkawi.

I am not expert at telling stories so the sequences might seem off somewhere.

Rewind. My name is hanna. My sister and I went to Kangar, Perlis to make a friend's wedding cake. We were given a homestay for the night and it is just next to a paddy field. So surprisingly calming..






While engaged with a call my sister took this. 


Realizing that the buttercream we brought couldn't be used we had a quick visit to the only bakery supply in Kangar.

Alang alang dah malam kita makan dulu

Around 930pm I told myself  'You'd better get started' so I fold up my sleeve and start working on the fondant
Here in picture is the iced cake covered with buttercream
Inside are layers of :- 4 cakes + 2 choc buttercream + 1 peanut choc


First time dealing with fondant and the result was just a so-so.
Have to learn and practice more.



I hoped the cake matched with the wedding theme : Sea/Beach-like.



During the transportation due to my negligence the cake had a terrific disaster.
A simple heat made the fillings all squeezed out and broke the fondant wall. Oh my.
With great assistance of my sister we repaired the messed-up cake on site before the brides came.

This was the after look, which was still not as good as before but barely saved the wedding.



In meantime a secret recipe cake was ordered as back up in case we weren't able to repair the cake


My sister who helped a lot during the hard moments. Thanks bersabar dengan acik. Sob sob.

The brides! Congratulations seniors of vanderbilt university, Izzati Illiyes & Luqman Rohaizad.
May Allah bless your marriage until jannah.

Opsie. I said I wanted to share something regarding the trip to Langkawi but none of the pictures is currently with me. So next time yea.

Have a great blessed holiday. Take care.

Warm Regards,
hannamahat
