A first

Another usual typically busy week in the office!

My first princess cake. Not as difficult as I thought it would be but painstakingly time consuming making the tiara with royal icing. Needed 3 layers to ensure its sturdiness, fearing it might still break but hey, nothing did! Everything is edible I'm proud to say!

Fun week

It was a fun week, albeit a frustrating one with all my car problems.

I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

All chocolate this week. Now I'm out of cocoa.

Rocky Road Chewy Chocolate Superheroes cookies
All drawn freehand with royal icing. Poor Spidey looks like he got hit by a train!


Chocolate cupcakes

Renovations

A week of small renovations and repairs to the house. It's funny how when you finally list the things to be repaired, replaced or removed it comes to a page long! Not to mention how when you find extra repairs, replaces and removals along the way... eg. the bathroom floor tiles just warped and cracked overnight!

I'm glad I got those extra shelves made in the kitchen. With the escalating prices of fuel recently, I'm sure to find the prices of ingredients raised accordingly. More reason to buy in bulk, I never did before as I didn't have the storage space.

Thanks Shon for the one and only order I had this week. A for those of you who might be coming again to collect your order, the house is no more white and brown but white and black.

I was looking forward to this week. A few interesting projects, as you can see below.

My first wedding cupcakes. Sugee (semolina) cake with buttercream and sugar paste decorations.


The Euro 2008 fever begins.... with a Chocolate cake!

This order came from Priscilla in the UK for her Mum's 60th birthday.

Busy week

Just when I thought it was going to be a quiet week, these happened....



This is what you get for tuning 55!

For someone leaving to work in The Netherlands. All the best!

Teacher's Day

Chocolate cupcakes for fave teachers.






Coconut orange cake in a soccer ball like shape.

Mother's Day

A couple of Mother's Day orders. All in Vanilla butter and chocolate.





A pretty young thing planned a glam bash for her friend's 21st birthday bash. She wanted me to follow some designs that Trish CupcakeMomma had done. Thanks Trish for the inspiration, I hope I did you justice. Oreo Cookie cupcakes with fondant stars.



Semolina (sugee) cake.... my fave, yums!


Went to visit a friend/ex-boss who broke her ankle *ouch* The Double Orange cupcakes reads "You're not in showbiz... Speedy recovery Hazel"







Pretty cupcakes for a another pretty young thing. Hana ordered these from Melbourne before coming home to collect them. She was sweet enough to SMS me after to say everyone loved them!


Coconut Orange cake. My last delivery to Lowe. I have been dumped for pre-mixes! *cries*

Just cupcakes

That's what this week has been about... nothing but cupcakes. I do enjoy making them, easier to decorate and one can get really creative with them. I'm waiting for the opportunity to individually decorate each cupcake in such a way that when you arrange them all together, it makes one complete picture... know what I mean?

More 'boobies' cupcakes... needless to say it was for a guy! A mix of Vanilla Butter and Butterscotch cupcakes.

Individually wrapped Oreo Cookie cupcakes with crushed cookie buttercream topped with a Hershey Kiss or an Oreo Wafer Roll. A nice thank you gesture... lucky people!















Chocolate cupcakes with buttercream for a Liverpool FC fan. The customer had to make the club logo 'flags' as I don't have a printer. *Hint, hint*
