The birthday cake, created for Sonam Kapoor, was a striking visual treat. Drenched in a luscious dark chocolate glaze with artistic swirls, the cake was topped with gold-accented chocolate discs and rich chocolate triangles. The finishing touch? A fondant tag with “Happy Birthday Sonam” written in elegant piping. It looked as luxurious and glamorous as the star it was made for.

In the video, Pooja is seen in her kitchen outfit — a casual black tee and cap — as she excitedly walks her audience through the process. She also posted a heartfelt birthday wish for Sonam, writing, “Haaaappppy birthdayyyy @sonamkapoor ️ Loveeeee youuuuuuu.”
