Ben10 cake

This Ben10 cake was a cake for a Ben10 fan who was turning 5. He loves Ben10 so much that he wears Ben10 stuffs everyday...he is so cute.

Nic shares the same birthday with Rachel, this year they celebrated their birthday together. They wanted different themes on the cake but we only wanted a small cake. So I came out with a design of half 'Ben10' and half 'puppy theme'.

The cake was lemon sponge filled with lemon curd and lemon buttercream then covered in fondant. The decorations were made few days ahead so they were completely dry. I cut out Ben10 lettering in black fondant and sticked them onto a neon green backing. Once they were dry, I stucked the piece onto the back of the puppy hut. For the final decorations I finished up the cake with plaque bubbles in neon green. The plaque bubbles were crawling onto the cake and some started to form an alien.

Happy Chinese New Year

These cupcakes were for chinese new year celebration at church. The cupcakes were lemon sponge dipped in lemon jelly and lemoncello then covered in fondant. The rabbits represent the year of rabbit...very straight forward...:-)

Wedding cake

It was a long long break from blogging...I'm all refreshed and ready to start another year with more bakings and decoratings.

Last December, I took a challenging project...it was a huge wedding cake. The cake was dummy in 16" 13" and 10" with 6" high. It was a really hard work...covering a huge cake is not an easy job. It harder than you can imagine. When I took on the project, I thought It wouldn't be too hard. But it was so hard that I got sick of fondant. I was so sick that I didn't even want to touch and smell fondant for almost 2 months...but now I'm back with more fondant works...hehehe still love decorating so much that I just can't get sick enough to throw everythings away.

I used styro dummies for the cake. Using royal icing I stick 2 dummies together to get the height that I wanted then covered in fondant. The bride and groom really like simple and modern cake, so I created this cake with quilted layer in the middle and ivory satin ribbon.

The intial JC was made of cardboard with sparkling powder.

The bride and groom figurine were fondant. It is not easy working with black fondant, it is too soft and sticky and harder to dry. For black fondant, I suggest mix it with chocolate fondant so it won't be too sticky.

Hard work pays off, everyone was happy with the cake. I really want to thank my hubby for helping me with kneading and rolling the fondant...THANK YOU FOR ALWAYS BE THERE WHEN I NEED YOU...

Sporty girl figurine

Sam requested this figurine for his classmate. This little girl likes tennis and birds so I made her a cake topper wiith sporty approached. She is wearing tennis outfit with a sport's bag carrying her tennis racket and a towel. She is looking at a bird nest next to her. Enjoy your birthday girl...

Cake of appreciations

This was a thank you cake from a doctor to his nurses, they are in IVF unit in Royal Women Hospital. I thought IVF always have to do with babies so created a cake with a lady holding a new born baby.

Daisy represents new life and brighter days. For some couples that cannot conceive naturally, IVF is a great opportunity for them to have their own children.

I wanted the cake to be simple and elegant so I used simple decorations and minimal colour combinations. Hope everyone enjoyed the cake.

Christening cake

This is a christening cake for little girl. Her lovely grandma wanted to have a book cake with baby booties. The cake was mud cake covered with dark chocolate ganache and decorated in fondant.

Pink booties in fondant decorated with pink ribbon and flowers.

The baby, giraffe and elephant are fondant.

Ben10 & Cars Cupcakes

In my childhood, Mickey mouse and Donald duck were the favourite cartoon characters. Now, Ben10 is one of the favourite. A young boy with special powers to become a superhero and save the world...dream of every boys. These cupcakes were for a 6 years old boy who loves Ben10. With a help from my son, I made 3 different Ben10 characters. Sam told me which colours were the closest to the characters and small details like the spots and horns. Sometimes, Sam was a great helper...he has the eyes of details and he fulls of imaginations. Thanks Babe...

The cupcakes were chocolate cakes with fondant decorations.

I also mixed the Ben10 characters with somethings more gentle and cute. I made cars, buses and trucks in cute version which are more suitable for younger boys and girls guests. Sparkling eyes and big smiles...those are the most favourite characters that we love to see in children.
