Handbag Cake

Nowadays, celebration cakes no longer come in just the traditional round or square cakes. It can be sculptured to any shapes that you like. I'm not an expert in novelty cakes or sculptured cakes but this is my latest design that I acquired from my recent class with sifu Yasmin of Bakingproject recently. Thanks Min for your guidance.

Hello Kitty Cake and Alphanumeric Cupcakes

I still remember somewhere in year 1991 when I was in secondary school, my little nieces (and I) started with this craze of collecting all Hello Kitty related merchandises...haha.. This little cat was very famous amongst the school children, high school girls and also some young adults.

Apparently, in the very beginning somewhere in year 1974, Hello Kitty, did not have a name. It was first seen as a kitty with a little red bow on its left ear, sitting down. However, Hello Kitty instantly attracted respect and love of thousands of people in Japan with its cute design and character, which turned Hello Kitty into an instant celebrity. Today, it is still popular among young mothers who have been loyal fans of Hello Kitty since her debut.

Javy's mum specially requested for a Hello Kitty (HK) theme fondant cake with  HK face on top of the cake. I guess, Javy who turns 2 is a fan of HK ( and maybe even her mum is :)) She also requested 12 pcs of cupcakes with alphabets and numbers as toppers. I was happy and really got excited when I received this order. Guess there's still this young girly heart in me.. heheh..

The main cake is a pure butter milk cake and vanilla cupcakes covered and decorated with marshmallow fondant.

One Hello Kitty..

Two baby footprints....

Three flower blossoms.., Four bright moons (although there's only one moon in the universe..)

Five shinning stars..... and ...Six lovely hearts..

Happy birthday to Javy and thanks to mummy Cavy for the order.. Really glad to know it was well liked. Thank you!

Dinosaurs Theme Cupcakes

Lucas's mum orderd 50 pcs of chocolate cupcakes for Lucas to celebrate his 5th birthday at his kindy. The theme chosen was dinosaurs since he is into dinosaurs and dragons. Initialy, I was quite blank with the theme, it is always not easy to do a boy's theme as compared to a girl's theme...hehe.. Nevertheless, with the help of some useful tutorials and photos from the net, I tried my best to come out with these. At least, I've done some research and only got to know that dinosaurs have many names/species. I've learnt something new after doing these fondant dinosaurs toppers.. :) It may not be a 100% similar anyway it's meant to be cartoon like. Here goes some of the scientific names of dinosaurs that I've hand moulded .......

Stegosaurus Armatus..

Pteranodon or Pterodactylus....

Tyrannosaurus Rex or better known as the 'T-Rex'!......

Triceratops...

Diplodacus or Camarasaurus... in water.

Another Pterodactyls......

Dinosaur's footprints..

Bones and stones..

Lucas's mum informed me that Lucas and his friends loved the cuppies..I'm so glad.. :) Thanks Jo for the order and Happy 5th Birthday to Lucas!  

Red And White Engagement Cake

Hi, I'm back with my baking but not in full force. This is my first engagement cake made for my brother-in-law which was held recently. The cake had traveled all the way to Kudat safe and sound. The couple wanted a red and white as their theme colour and the cake flavour was a tri-marble cake- pandan chocolate vanilla butter cake.

The couple figurines were handmade with sugarpaste/fondant.

Happy Engagement to Barry and Flina..

Man U Fan Cupcakes

It's a fully football theme decorated cupcakes for a Man U fan. The cupcake flavour is chocolate with cream cheese filling or it's better known as the' Black Bottom cupcakes'. These cupcakes are a luscious hybrid of chocolate cake and a yummy moist cheesecake mixture. It is best served when chilled. Of course, cheesecake is also nicer when served with freshcream toppings but for decoration wise, we can only decorate freshcream icing with either fruits or chocolates. Therefore, for a themed cupcakes like these, I have to use buttercream and fondant toppers. Fondant is not suitable to go with freshcream because freshcream needs to be refrigerated most times but fondant doesn't stay in shape when it is refregerated because fondant is 'afraid' of moist. It will turn soft when condensation happens.

         Another option for toppings to go with this chocolate with cheese filling cupcake would be cream cheese icing. Double the cheese, double the happiness :) 

The red devil mascot. Is it cute, evil or what? :P

Man U logo printed on edible icing sheet. Red jersey and socks made of fondant.

Thanks Lysly for the order.

Chocolate and Strawberry Cupcakes

A loving wife ordered 50 cupcakes for her husband's 38th birthday. It's for her husband to bring to his office for his colleagues. She requested for 25 pieces of chocolate and 25 pcs of strawberry. The colour theme chosen was brown/chocolate, blue and white. Her husband plays golf and likes football too.

Fondant toppers : jersey, shorts, socks, snickers and choc balls.

Requested by customer to put the wordings as : To my hubby, I heart U.. How sweet.. :)

These were the 25 sets of strawberry cupcakes with blue/white colour theme and golf sports equipments and accessories. I should have used white or a darker shade of blue for the happy birthday wordings to make it more contrasting in colour. Initially, I was thinking of using white buttercream to go with the blue wordings but at the end I managed to get a nice shade of blue buttercream. So I still have to use the blue wordings which I made in advance and I hope it wasn't too bad.

Happy birthday Wira !

Moist Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

Beneath this cake lies double layer of moist, lightly spiced cake that are flecked with carrots, sandwiched with walnuts and enveloped by a generous coating of creamy cream cheese frosting. It is further enhanced with a generous amount of chopped toasted walnuts on the sides that adds the nice crunch of contrasting texture..

Yup, carrot cake will never go out of time. I love carrot cake. In fact, carrot cake was the first cake that I baked when I first started on this hobby.. then came along the chocolate cake.. :)

This carrot cake is delicious, and offers a welcome treat be it for birthdays or any other occasion. It also makes a mouth-watering alternative for those who don’t like chocolate or other cakes. The cake weighs around 2 kg and price at RM65.
