The ritual is not only a symbol of preparing Christmas cakes but also represents good luck, abundance, and togetherness as the holiday season approaches.

On Friday, October 17, guests will enjoy a live band at Lake Terrace, the highlight Cake Mixing Ceremony, plus acrobatic displays, fire dancing, kids’ goodie bags, and interactive clown entertainment.
