Dimapur, October 20 (MExN): It’s not yet Christmas, but the intoxicating aroma of the Annual Cake Mixing Ceremony organized by the department of Hotel Management, The Global Open University (TGOU), Nagaland brought alive the rich tradition and unveiled the spirit of the festive season.
According to a press note from the university, spreading the cheer along with the Chef (Faculties) of the department, the ceremony invited the participation of Dr. Imotemsu Ao, Director/Registrar, TGOU and other administrative staffs of the university. The participants dressed in typical Chefs attire of hats and aprons amidst tradition and fanfare. Together rolled up their sleeves and put their hands in the mixing pots to make the perfect Christmas cake.
After the traditional cake mixing ceremony, the mixture was put into airtight bags and left to mature until around Christmas, when it will be blended with the cake batter and baked. Over the years, “cake mixing” has become something of a ritual and is an occasion one looks forward to.
