THE CAKE

The cake was over 6ft tall, a mix of chocolate fruit cake and vanilla cake sandwiched with vanilla buttercream, created

It was also layered with in built support boards and then covered and decorated with fondant. It was over 6 foot tall and took over 6 weeks to make.

THE EVENT

The event which took place at Imax Film house was planned by 3A events and hosted by the amazing Tope Olowoniya who handled the event graciously till the end. The event was blessed by the presence of so many people, family and friends of members of the organization who wanted to show their support.

Due to some causalities that led to the breakdown of the cake, it wasn’t displayed neither was it auctioned. This caused a lot of disappointment but it certainly didn’t stop the celebration of a wonderful event and the message behind the initiative.

The event was blessed with beautiful music from P4 string quartet  who razzled and dazzled guess with beautiful harmonies and the game of thrones theme song. Syden SFX was on prime as usual with the snow special effect.
