Gulab Jamun Cake/Gulab Jamun Cake Recipe

Gulab Jamun  is one of most popular Indian sweet and my personal favourite .These days fusion cakes are in trend ,So after the ever popular rasmalai cake it  was time to try the gulab jamun cake and im glad that i did.to be honest i had never tasted the gulab jamun cake so this was completely an experiment .I used my mawa cake for the base and milk powder gulab jamun i skipped using sugar syrup to moisten the cake because i dint want a oversweet cake 

For the base i have used my mawa cake which is fluffy and so yummy and then used whipped cream to frost it ,the gulabjamuns  i used were homemade too ,you can either make milk powder gulab jamuns like i did or the my khoya gulab jamuns .
