After enjoying the lavish brunch, guests rolled up their sleeves and joined in the cake-mixing fun. Donning chef hats, aprons, and gloves, they mixed together an aromatic blend of premium dried fruits, nuts, and fine spirits—ingredients essential for creating the rich, flavorful Christmas cakes.
The process, which signals the beginning of the holiday baking season, is an important tradition in many cultures, allowing the ingredients to mature and develop their full flavor before the big day.
As the mixing took place, the atmosphere was full of holiday tunes and the gentle sound of waves from the nearby beach. The seaside location added a special touch to the day.
