Courtyard by Marriott Shillong hosted its first Cake Mixing Ceremony on November 5th, 2023, marking a significant milestone for the hotel. The event celebrates the holiday season and showcases the property’s commitment to creating memorable guest experiences. The event was attended by city enthusiasts, loyal patrons, in-house members, and associates, as well as prominent personalities, socialites, and influencers. The traditional cake-mixing ceremony, which begins one month before Christmas, is believed to bring good fortune and joy.
The event involves collecting and incorporating various ingredients into a plum cake, including spirits, dried fruits, cherries, dates, and spices, which are then soaked in alcoholic beverages like brandy, rum, and wine, allowing them to mature before the baking process. The festive spirit was in full swing as the hotel premises resonated with the joyous essence of this cherished ritual.
On this inaugural occasion of grand cake mixing at Courtyard by Marriott Shillong, Mr. Tushar Nagar, General Manager, Courtyard by Marriott Shillong, proudly shares, “We were delighted to host our first inaugural Cake Mixing Ceremony at Courtyard by Marriott Shillong.
