Miffy Birthday Party







Miffy Cupcakes for the Kindy Graduation

Dear Cake Sweeties

How very lovely to be asked to make Jeremy's bestie's 5th birthday cake and some matching sweets. The design is credited to "@thecakinggirl" but I just changed the colour combinations to blue, orange and yellow.

As usual, I began making the fondant Miffy, her teddy and the balloons a couple of weeks before the party so they could dry before I placing them on top of the cake. The top tier was a chocolate and vanilla swirl cake while the bottom tier was a dummy cake (styrofoam covered and decorated with fondant). 

Mum of the birthday boy is also a dear friend asked: if I could think of anything to go with the cake. I recommended some as shown below. The only thing I didn't plan was the naked Miffy mini cakes. It was not to waste the extra cake I baked. I decided to turn it into something as marvellous and delicious as the cake itself. 

Miffy Themed Matching Desserts:

1. Miffy Macarons: My friend asked for white and pink with cookies and cream ganache. The white was vanilla macaron with cookies and cream white chocolate ganache. The pink was raspberry macaron with dark chocolate ganache.

2. Miffy Marshmallow Pops: The idea I sent to my friend was the store-bought one i.e. to cut two marshmallows and shape into a rabbit but I don't feel it's matching because of the shape. I ended up making my own marshmallow and used my Miffy cutter to cut out the desired shape. My friend was very surprised and pleased.

3. Miffy Cupcakes: My friend didn't order the cupcakes for the party due to the number of guests invited. However, I did these Miffy cupcakes (vegan chocolate) back in December last year for the birthday boy's kindy graduation. 

This theme is absolutely lovely as the Easter is coming soon. Everything can be re-created for the Easter. In the meantime, I can't wait to share with you my Easter sweets and treats with you soon.

Thank you for visiting my creation. Hope to see you soon next time.

Happy baking
