Incidents in life are mostly about casual routines, and only few things change the rhythm of your heart. Those moments can be found anywhere, yet they are rare. That’s a one reason why I love weddings. Wedding is a place where good moments are likely to meet. Shared happiness, socializing, music and dance, dining together, last but not least, the wedding cake. A sweet closing for a sweet event.
Since we are stuck in quarantine and can’t go out for this kind of gathering, I decided to bring the event to home and I made a cake to be able to pretend like we are celebrating a happy event outside.
My beetroot cake is tasty as well as pretty, and the beautiful pink color is 100% natural. #NOFOODCOLORING
