Try retreiving the cairo context for the widget you want to draw in and try
this:
/* Create the default Layout */
layout = pango_cairo_create_layout(cr);
/* Atach the font descriptor */
font_description = pango_font_description_new();
/* Setup Fonts and color and other layout attributes*/
pango_font_description_set_family(font_description,"Helvetica");
cairo_set_source_rgba(cr, 0.3, 0.3, 0.3, 1.0);
pango_font_description_set_absolute_size(font_description, 0.28 *
PANGO_SCALE);
pango_font_description_set_weight(font_description,PANGO_WEIGHT_BOLD);
pango_layout_set_font_description(layout,font_description);
gchar * l1 = g_strdup_printf("%s-%d",label->aid,label->nid);
cairo_move_to(cr, 0.05 * xmultip, 0.00 * ymultip);
pango_layout_set_text(layout,l1,-1);
pango_cairo_show_layout(cr,layout);
You can also use
pango_layout_set_markup(layout,l1,-1);
using Pango markup to change text style.
