Batik is a traditional Indonesian technique of hand-dyeing fabrics using patterns laid down in wax.
The dyed fabric usually feature bold, colourful prints that are similar to the ones seen on these cakes.
How it's done
According to Batikrolls, they start off drawing the design -- which can be drawn free-hand or with a stencil.
Once the batik design is completely filled in with buttercream colours, its baked in the oven for a few minutes.
The cake batter is later added over, and both layers go in for a second baking.
"The tricky part is (combining) the (prints) together with the cake and baking it together. After that, we flip the cake upside down and peel away the tracing paper to reveal the (print)," Batikrolls told Mashable.

"My mum has been passionately baking all her adult life. I used one of her popular recipes and fused it with roll cake art," she said.
If you're keen on the cakes, you'll have to hold your horses for at least another month. Nura's store is sold out until July 17, so get those orders in soon.
