My 1st 2-tiered Birthday Cake!!!

This was ordered by Ing Ay last weekend for her bro's 21st bday :) According to her, he likes dogs alot, so it was decided that the cake would be of a doggie theme!! I suggested to her that i will make 21 dogs to be place all around the cake to signify his age. Other than that, the doggies will be wearing party hats & will pose differently. It was for a party of 50 ppl! :D As a doggie lover, i searched the net and decided to make different breed of dogs, as many as i could handle :)

And only a few days before the delivery date, i was told that the cake will be travelling back to Port Dickson for the party O_0 At that moment i was kinda worried the cake may topple of some of the deco may get destroyed in the journey... But, it's another achievement cos this is the furthest my creation has travelled so far & nothing happened to the cake thank goodness.. hehe

I made the cake in a bright yellow colour for a more cheerful overall look and so that the dogs will stand out :)


The cake, i love the colours!! :) Can u spot the different breeds of dogs??


The schnauzer on top with a hat pointing at the number 21 :D love this dog the best!!


The complementing cupcakes :)

The breed of dogs on the cakes were JRT, west highland terrier, min pin, dashound, huskie, poodle, schnauzer, dalmation! :) hehehe

I have never kneaded so much icing in my life... a total of 2.5kgs of fondant..... to turn white fondant into bright yellow wasnt easy.. lol

The bottom was a 10 inch round sugee almond with bailey's cake while the 6 inch was a chocolate cake with choc forsting. I finished the cakes at 6am on the day of the delivery. Nevertheless, im very happy with how it turned out :) Hope the bday boy liked it was well.

Center Stage Cake

Another quite last min cake! lol Im not complaining! I am happy that my business is slowly picking up :) sometimes it can really get out of hand, but i will somehow manage to pull through.

This cake was ordered by Chloe, for her cousin sis's birthday. She was very specific with wat she wanted, a cake which is a stage, with a girl, holding a throphy with a sash. & she also wanted 2 hand painted logos. The Allianz logo together with the MDRT logo.

The birthday girl works for Allianz, & i think she's one of the winners for the MDRT (Million Dollar Round Table) award, so Chloe wanted the cake to signify that :)

Chloe collected the cake in the morning, and called me back after 20 minutes telling me the birthday girl loves the cake alot, and the figure kinda looks like her lol they had a good laugh :)

Of Roses & Bears

This cake was done quite long ago, a very last min order by my cousin, managed to squeeze in his order -_- Was very rushing & hectic, but heck, i love decorating :P He didn't say much about the person who's receiving the cake, & he just wanted something sweet & cute since it was for a girl. A banana cake with coffee buttercream under the deco. I actually wanted to do roses & some simple design for this cake, but cakes done by me wont be complete without any figure modeling! So i made 2 bears, and a present :)

simple, sweet & cute!


i used 2 shades of pink for the simple roses around the cake :)

The bears :)

Cupcakes!

These are a few sets of cupcakes i made recently, the sets were ordered from Nancy, Sallie, Hasnah & Rebecca.

Nancy was very supportive when i told her i stopped working & is doing my business now full time. She told me her daughter's birthday is coming up so she ordered a set for her. She left the deco up to me, so i came up with a Winter theme!! :) Ploar bears, eskimos, igloos, & seals!!!


Winter Cupcakes, butter cupcakes with lemon flavoured buttercream ;)



Love the fishing bear :)

Sallie wanted a set of cupcakes for her friend's daughter, no special occasion, just wanted to make her happy :) She requested for 3D modelling, my specialty especially when it comes to animals! :P i love making animals. So i came up with a garden/picnic theme, where animals are seen on the cucpakes, with bees on flowers, & some of them having a picnic! lol


I love the frog the most in this set :) :) :)


Bees paktor-ing haha! :P



The cupcakes, banana coffee cupcakes with choc frosting!

She told me that her friend's daughter & her own daughter loved the cupcakes so much that they didn't want to eat any of them til days later lol!!!

Another set of cupcakes was for Hasnah, who ordered for her husband's 60th birthday. She told me he likes the sea. Wanted to make the cupcakes just based on designs from under the sea, but didnt want to. Came up with a better idea, i made the cupcakes from the beach & slowly decending down to the bottom of the sea. I used different shades of blue showing the deepnest of the ocean :) Since it was for a 60 yr old, i didnt want to make the cupcakes too cute looking :P This set of cupcakes was more matured & subtle.


Another set of chocolate cupcakes with choc frosting ;) Many customers order chocolate for their cakes & cupcakes, the fav i would say!

Love the "sand" & sea-shells!! ;)

Another set were ordered by Rebecca for her colleage mates' farewell, as some of them are leaving for Aussie for their final year studies. She said they mainly study & party, so i made half of the cupcakes all on books & studying materials, while the other half were beers & cocktails.


Study Smart & Play Hard Cupcakes, another set of choc cupcakes with choc frosting :D


Beers & cocktails


Books, lecture notes, the Aussie flag cos they r going there for studies :P With laptops & notes as well

Steamboat Cake

Li Quan, an old school mate of mine came to me 2 weeks back, asking for a special cake for her bf's birthday. She told me somethings about him, & told me that he really like to eat steamboat! That sparked off something, & i suggested that i can make the steamboat pot, with all the steamboat ingredients :P So take a look at the outcome.


LOL!!! Wat do u think?? looks pretty realistic rite?? :P I managed to con my frens by showing them this pic, they really thought they were real...


I am a steamboat lover too, that's y i have the different types of fishball images in my head, & made it much easier for me to do each piece of deco :) All the fishballs are hand-made. No moulds or what-so-ever.

The cake :) Steamboat has never tasted so sweet lol

It was a choc cake with choc frosting under the deco. Feedback was good, the bf loved the cake, & her family were amazed to see such a cake, & they didnt wanna wat it cos it was too realistic :) She also said that the cake was yummy, but the icing was a tad sweet. I'll reduce sugar from now on!

Groovy cupcakes

This was an order from Mun Yee from PetNYou. The cupcakes made their way to Mid Valley on the 5th of July to the Pet World Malaysia 2009 exibition :)


Agility & Obedience competition were on that day, & my instructor was participating in some of the events & i must say they both excel in agility, they won but im not sure wat placing cos i went home early, as i was not feeling too good :(

Fawn, the bday boy really like dogs & agility. So i combined both & made the cupcakes based on the 2 themes. She asked for a specific amount of cupcakes to be all in one box & that signified his age :)

The cupcakes were choc & butter flavour. 16 cupcakes were the main deco, the rest were simple designs. I made half with a bone & dog food, & the other half with grass, & some flowers with butterflies. The reason i did that was becos agility is a sport which is always done outdoors on a field hence the grass & butterflies :) I made groovy, his beloved K9 companion, & some doggie toys & food & bed!, & some agility equipments (tunnel, the weave poles, the jump & tyre).

The Groovy cupcakes all in one big big box, the box measured 17" by 14" :P Silly me, I was rushing to send the cupcakes, cos i only finished them at 5pm when i was suppose to send them to MidValley at 630pm so i didnt take any decent pics.. should have took pics without the empty cupcakes containers, i put them there to preven the cupcakes from sliding -_-

The four dogs i made was actually his JRT named Groovy. Which is why i named this set of cupcakes, Groovy cupcakes! :)

Other than that, since the cupcakes numbers were rather odd, she asked me to seperately make & keep 7 cupcakes for her to bring home & she didnt mind with any design. So i made these for her :)


cute eh??
