Under the Sea

04 May 2011

Never will I take two cake orders on the same day, ever! Unless after my kitchen is upgraded, with a bigger oven that will allow me to bake more than one cake at a time. The request was for two cakes for two little boys celebrating their first birthday. Each cake to feed 25 people. I could have ...

Angry Birds

26 April 2011

Until now, I've been too busy and un-inspired to do any serious cake decorations. We celebrated our family birthdays in the past few months with store bought cakes. All of a sudden, in April, I baked and decorated three cakes in a week. Thoroughly exhausted! I probably over-strained my hands, as ...

Dora Cake

19 February 2011

This cake was made last Christmas. I thought for a long time before I accepted the request. I ended up spending most of Christmas on making this cake. This cake was for Sarah's 3rd birthday. Making Dora from fondant was a real feat. The first Dora looked like someone from horror story. If it ...

Sheepy Cake

08 January 2011

Made this cake quite a while ago. For one of my cell member's 50th birthday celebration. This was my present to him. This is my first three tier cake. Took me a looong time to bake all the cake layers, let alone decorate them. It was decorated using his theme of sheperd and sheep. Cake was a great ...

Geronimo Stilton For Gabriel

23 October 2010

Gabriel loves to read Geronimo Stilton books, like many of his peers in primary school. He has a collection of almost 20 now. When I was thinking hard about the design of his birthday cake, he suggested Geronimo Stilton. I researched on the internet but alas, google only returned two Geronimo ...

Nathalie is Two!

16 October 2010

October is a busy, busy month. Its the end of the company's financial year which means work is extra busy. It is also the month that we have two birthday celebrations at home - Nathalie's at the beginning of the month and Gabriel's towards the end. Two other celebrations in between, so a total of ...

Cake for the Cycling Enthusiast

31 July 2010

Made this cake for a boss who was leaving. The bicycle was the most difficult part of the cake. It fell apart in multiple places and I just tried to stick it together. I made the bicycle parts two days in advance. Here, the parts are drying. For the frame, I used spaghetti inside the gumpaste to ...

A Princess Party!!

26 July 2010

Samantha celebrated her 5th birthday recently. She was trying to decide between a princess or fairy themed party and was still flip flopping two weeks before the party. Finally settled for a princess theme. With the help of my two very talented couple friends, we had a beautiful party. It was such ...

Lion overdose!

09 June 2010

This cake order made me so tired of lions. This is made for a boy who adores lions. I was shown the boy's picture, his lion soft toy and a t-shirt that he was to wear for his birthday party. I incorporated all that into this cake. I experimented with many 'lions'. Only this one resembles one ...

Nature Cake

23 May 2010

This cake was created for a colleague's daughter. She's eighteen, loves nature and favourite colour is lime green. I was unable to achieve lime green from my set of Wilton's colours but I did manage to add many details into the cake so that it looked interesting. A monkey, as she was born in the ...
