♔ Bridgerton Inspired Cake ♔
// Earl Grey Cinnamon Poached Pear Cake //
_
Decided to bake a Bridgerton themed cake for Mother's Day for my mother, my mother in law and myself.. Another reason and event to create a cake I've been wanting to create (this is something I always look forward to!)
The colours are primarily inspired by Daphne's dresses. There should be more silver colours for the Bridgertons- however, I didn't include any silver colours in the cake because of the time constraints.
Not going to lie, this cake was made in hurry and in a short period of time because my mum flew to Singapore the day before mother's day. Haven't seen her in 2 years, I would want to spend time with her instead of frosting a cake.
I chose to make earl grey sponge for this cake, because my mum enjoys earl grey. I guess earl grey is something safe and easy for everyone to enjoy. There was earl grey infused cream in between the layers, and slices of cinnamon poached pear. Vanilla Buttercream with a hint of Yuzu wrapped the whole cake nicely. This cake was indeed pleasant. Sweet and refreshing!
Both my mum and mum in law said this was definitely less sweet compared to other cakes they've tasted before.
So glad they enjoyed it despite being made in such a short period of time 😂
It was a good Mother's Day this year 🌸
