New Delhi: A Mumbai-based chef has been whipping up delightful desserts inspired by fashion on the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival. "While the red carpet at Cannes had the fashion world drooling, we at Le 15 decided to interpret some of our favourite looks and give them a new avatar - in the form of dessert," writes chef Pooja Dhingra, owner of Le 15 Patisserie and Cafe and a graduate of Le Cordon Bleu, on Instagram.

The fashion-forward desserts are a big hit on social media, with many writing the sweet treats look even better than the dresses. 

Even Bollywood's resident fashionista Sonam Kapoor and her sister Rhea have given Ms Dhingra's creative confections a big thumbs up. 

"Yummy," comments Ms Kapoor on a picture of a stunning four-tier champagne and chocolate cake inspired by her shimmery Elie Saab gown. 

"There better be some real champagne in there," jokes designer Masaba Gupta.
