Cakes make celebrations extra special. Over the years, cake design has evolved from elaborate decorations to the now trendy minimalist cakes.
However, in Hong Kong, there's a type of cake that has become a fad during the lockdown period: illusion cakes!
Alison Chan and Cony Lam, co-owners of Dear Harley Confectionery and Design, recently pivoted their business from making wedding cakes and dessert tables to crafting unreal and stunning made-to-order illusion cakes.
They have become an instant hit and have definitely saved their business amid the pandemic.
