May is Asian Heritage Month

The Asian Heritage Scoiety of New Brunswick asked me to make a cake for the Asian Heritage Month Celebration Opening ceremony at the Centennial Building in Fredericton.
The Guests of Honour: The Hon. Preeti Saran, Consul General of India, The Hon. Martine Coulombe. Minister of Post-Secondary Education. His Worship Brad Woodside, Mayor of Fredericton and other government officials.

The theme of this year's celebration is “Celebrating Canadians of South Asian Origin.  
"The designation “South Asian” refers to those who trace their heritage to India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Nepal, and Bhutan."
Please visit the society's wesbite, AHS NB Website, to know more about the festivities.

The design I have chosen for this cake is to have the  different flags stitched together.
The challenge I had in making this cake is that all the decorations cannot be done ahead of time.
I scored the edges of the flags to get the look of stitching.
I spent at least 8 hours (not including baking) on this cake.
Hope you like it!
Thanks for viewing!

HAPPY AHM CELEBRATION!
