This light, moist cake is spiced with glorious chai infused milk, ginger, spices and layered with a dreamy rose mousse and topped with Parle G crumble. Parle G is the “taste of childhood” for most Indians and what would be more perfect then adding it as a topping to a chai spiced layered cake. I hope you enjoy the recipe as much as I did and tag me @foodstoriesbytwisha, can’t wait to see your recreation. Watch a quick reel on how to make it on my instagram page foodstoriesbytwisha
