How can I have a traditional wedding cake, but decorate to honor Bengali Indian ceremonies, any ideas??
There are lots of ways to add some customization to your cake. I would suggest finding a fabric that has a pattern you like and asking your cake decorator to use the fabric as a pattern on the cake. The pattern could be imprinted on the frosting (white on white for a more subtle look), painted with food coloring, or a combo of the two. You can have traditional henna designs painted on your cake. Another option is to find ceramic tiles that have traditional designs and use those tiles to be the base of your cake and each layer. Another pace to get designs is from a stationary store. They often have paper with traditional designs from other countries. These can be used as templates to paint scenes on the cake, decorate the cake stand, etc. Mosaics are a common theme, so maybe incorporate a mosaic design onto the cake. Try to find a groom and bride in traditional dress for the cake topper. There are lots of places to get custom cake toppers.
