Lego Inspired Cake

Hi Cake Sweeties

Today I bring you a cake for people of all ages…Lego-Inspired that is!

The cake design came from “The Sweet Design”. In the beginning, I considered moulding Lego bricks using a silicone mould and coloured chocolate melts or fondant to get perfectly uniform bricks, but with the thickness of the bricks, I realised that the cake would be too difficult to cut.

I settled with cutting out many different colours rectangles as bricks to stick on four sides first. When that’s all done, started cutting out tiny circles using a straw, then arrange the tiny circles to look like Lego on top of the cake.

I made two major toppers a week ahead of baking the cake, which were the number 7 and the nameplate. I used the Lego Font to type out the number and name first as a template or guidance to cut out on the gumpaste.

The cake itself was carrot cake sandwiched with cream cheese white chocolate ganache and covered with white chocolate ganache. The flavour birthday mum loves so much.

Dear Lucas

Happy birthday. We wish you always to keep your contagious smile on the face, to be happy and healthy! Enjoy your day and the cake.

Thank you all for sharing this journey with us. See you soon.

Happy baking

We are very conscious of what we provide to our beloved ones. We use Callebaut Belgium Chocolate, 100% Cocoa Powder (Callebaut, Hershey’s or Dutch Processed Cocoa), Free Range Eggs, Big Brand Flours (White Wings, Gluten Free if requested), Bakels fondant and the list goes on plus hours of baking and days and weeks of decorating times etc)

We provide you with free consultation and a few quotations to suit your budget but don’t compromise the deliciousness of our products. However, we are all faced with the rising costs day by day. Now we have to charge some miscellaneous costs for the order under $150 or products needed individual packaging. We thank you for your understanding and continuously support in the near future.

Terms and Conditions:

At bakingmummy, we pride ourselves on the QUALITY of our products and services. Our aim is to provide only the FRESHEST and HIGHEST quality cakes to our customers.

It is also important to remember that cakes are a perishable and delicate product. Unfortunately once we dispatch our cakes or our customers take possession of them, a number of factors relating to the care and transportation of the cakes may result in the quality being compromised or damage occurring to the cakes that are beyond our control or responsibility.

Care instructions must be followed thoroughly in order to avoid compromising the cakes quality, freshness and design. To assist in the care of your cake we will provide tips on transportation and storage. Unfortunately, with all the possible variables, it is difficult for bakingmummy to guarantee the cake quality in every case once it has left our premises.

All cakes delivered and or picked up are deemed accepted by the purchaser in all cases.

Order Information

You can contact me for a quote or ideas or to order the cupcakes or a cake by emailing me on baking-mama@hotmail.com

I try to get back to all enquires as soon as possible as I have other commitments! Each cake is priced individually as each one is unique in its own way.

With the custom made cakes, please place your order as early as you can to avoid disappointment. At least one month prior to your event would be wonderful. If you are having the matching dessert bar; then at least two months prior to the event will be great.

In regards to ordering and due to rising costs, I'm no longer able to carry the cost of ingredients until I source all ingredients before I can email you a quote. Those who have had one of my cakes know how much time and effort I put into each cakey piece of art just for you!

Please note from 2014, I now charge the delivery fee of $10-$50 plus the parking fee depending on the location.

To ensure a booking I now require a 50% deposit up front (non-refundable), before I even start the cake and to cover most ingredients especially those that will have to be ordered in. No deposit one month prior to the event means there is no secure booking. The balance needs to be paid preferably one week before the day of completion/delivery. I am quite happy to have this done by cash and PayPal. I am sorry that no more direct deposit due to the security reason.

I look forward to creating something special just for you :)
