Baju Kebaya Cake

I really enjoyed decorating this cake, maybe it sort like a challenged for me to practice my royal icing pipping. What is Baju Kebaya? see below for my blog reader who are not from South East Asia.

I have a few pairs of Baju Kebayas

   




A Kebaya is a traditional blouse-dress combination that originates from Indonesia and worn by women in Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Burma, Singapore, southern Thailand. It is sometimes made from sheer material such as silk, thin cotton  or semi-transparent nylon or polyester adorned with brocade or floral pattern embroidery. Kebaya usually worn with a sarong or batik kain panjang, or other traditional woven garment such as ikat, songket with a colorful motif.

The kebaya is the national costume of Indonesia, although it is more accurately endemic to the Javanese, Sundanese and Balinese peoples. (extract from Wikipedia)
