Mehndi-Inspired Wedding Cakes
Filed under Alternative Wedding Cakes + Traditions 1:38 pm
Henna is a natural substance used in some cultures to create intricate temporary tattoos, especially on the hands and feet. It is traditional for brides and, in some cases, grooms, to have mehndi designs applied in the days leading up to the wedding. This practice is popular in India, but is also fashionable in other countries as well. Now, you can get a mehndi-inspired wedding cake too!
The cake pictured is by Henna by Heather, a company located in the Northeast, but if you don’t live in that region, you can ask a local artist about the possibility of doing a cake design. Henna tattoos are often extremely intricate, so some cake decorators may not feel comfortable with completing the design you want, but there are many talented artists out there who can create a beautiful mehndi-inspired cake. This is a great spin on an ancient tradition!
