Miss Sunshine Cake

You are my sunshine

The Sunny Topper

The Smash Cake

Hi Everyone

Last week, I had an opportunity to create this super sunny birthday cake with a matching smash cake to go with the celebration. I had a good time making it as you hardly have a song for a cake. It also kept my Mr 3 and Miss 0 entertained while I sang and made cakes.

The cake was a 6 inch checkerboard cake with our new vanilla and chocolate sponge cakes filled and covered with milk chocolate ganache. It was covered in lemony yellow fondant and decorated in fondant as well.

The sunshine on top was using the styrofoam ball so the parents can keep it as a keepsake after the party. The smash cake was vanilla and chocolate swirl cake. The smash cake was perfect for a one year old to smash which was roughly around 6 inches in diameter.

Thank you for stopping by.

Hope to create more cakes and treats for you in the near future.

Happy baking

Baby Full Month Package

Hi Everyone

I am a parent who prefers to celebrate tradition with something less traditional. :-) I didn't have a party to celebrate as I was still in the confinement from my c-section birth. However, I did manage to prepare something for family and friends on behalf of Miss Ellie. Take a look at what I prepared for her Full Month Package. 

The package contained:

- Baby Milk Bottle & Onsie Sugar Chocolate Cookies

- Dark Chocolate Macaroons

- Vanilla Swiss Rolls (Made by my friend from Mantou Kitchen).

You can email me to customise your baby full month package.

Thank you for stopping by.

Little Gentleman & Royal Crown Baby Shower Dessert Table

Hi Everyone

I am back to work after giving birth to my second baby in February and a month in confinement. Back in January, as my little valentine was turning 2 and our second baby would be joining our family, we had the combo of the little gent and royal crown themes working together. The result was fabulous.

They were four elements - bow tie, moustache, pink and gold crown. Overall, I am so happy with the way everything turned out. I also love that 'pink' can be incorporated into a little boys party without making it feel overwhelmingly girly.

Desserts highlights to look out for:

- gold fondant crown on the chocolate covered strawberry cream Oreos (I forgot to put the crown on at the end)

- royal crown brown sugar cookies

- moustache dark chocolate sugar cookies

- moustache dark chocolate lollipops

- moustache chocolate covered vanilla cream Oreos

- bow tie birthday cake (marble butter cake)

- white, gold, pink gum balls

- black rock sticks

It was such a fun day. Now, I can plan and have more parties like this after the arrival of my second baby Ellie. That means more cakes, treats and desserts to share. What a piece of sweet life to have. 

We are back to take small orders. Please feel free to contact via email or FB. Thank you for stopping by.

Little Mermaid Dessert Table

Hi Everyone

Long time no blog about my latest dessert table. The reason is that I am expecting Baby No.2 and I am finally feeling better and free to write about it.

This Little Mermaid birthday party was another girl's theme I organised for my beloved niece Sophie's 6th birthday. Her mum came to look after Jeremy and I when I was in very early stage of my pregnancy back in June. I was looking for some inspirations through Pinterest and this was what I came up with.

I chose a very girly colour palette in shades of pastel pink and lavender purple to match the doll's cake. As I said, it's very early stage of my pregnancy (two weeks waiting period after the IVF transfer); I kept the dessert table very simple.

Highlight:

1. Little Mermaid Doll Cake (Golden Vanilla with White Belgium Chocolate Ganache)

2. Starfish and Little Mermaid Cookies (Vanilla Sugar Cookies)

3. Pearl Necklace (Gumballs and Ribbons)

4. Little Mermaid Rings (In a crystal bow filled with digestive cookies that look like sand)

5. Mini chocolate balls with rock candy

That was that! We had a good time celebrating with our beloved Sophie again after 5 years living apart. Happy 6th birthday to Sophie!!

LV Wallet & Gift Box Cake

Hi Everyone

Last week, I got the pleasure of making a Louis Vuitton Damier Wallet Cake.

The cake was for my big valentine's birthday and was a replica of his present I bought to surprise him. The flavour was the new American Mud Cake recipe with bittersweet chocolate ganache; then covered with the delicious Bakels chocolate fondant.

I am confident to say it tastes as good as it look. The fondant was not too sweet but delicious enough to make you want more.

Thank you for stopping by to see my new creation.

Motorbike Cake

Hi Everyone

Here is my Motorbike Cake I made with Verusca Walker on Saturday class at Bake Boss in Brisbane, still a lot to make it perfect but I had to rush and leave early to pick Jeremy up and off to Paul's Reward Night the same day.

All my fellow girls were helpful and great to work with. Versuca had great patience and great knowledge of cake decorating. The atmosphere was relaxing. The pace of the class was great in a way that was earily understandable. It was lovely to learn with someone who genuinely wanted to encourage the participants to go further and even the beginners liked me feel like I have beat the odds.

I will definitely be back for another course or more in the future!

I have so many projects coming soon and I can not wait to share with you.
Happy baking
