Engagement Cupcakes

An engagement gift for the couple, by Norfazreena. She wanted merah hati for the red shade, unfortunately, for butter-based icing, it is difficult to achieve, unless, of course, if i put in tonnes of red color, which I personally think, is not healthy.

Valentine's Day Cupcakes

Valentine's day comes early for Vanessa and Daniel this year....and advance V-Day celebration.

Orange and white

These were made for Habeeb's gf, a soon-to-be teacher. I have never done orange colored cupcakes before and was pleasantly surprised to see the outcome. Hmm, not bad ( i mean, the color scheme lah!)

Wordings as per Habeeb's :-)

Anniversary Cupcakes

Red butter cream.......this is always a challenge! No matter how much colorant you add, it wont turn into that sharp-deep-red color!

Here's why:

I used cooked sugar in my butter cream. The ratio of butter to sugar is much higher than in butter icing (where icing sugar is added into butter). Fondant and butter icing absorb and 'show' the red colorant better than buttercream due to the icing sugar content.. ..hope anyone who reads this would understand why, sometimes, the buttercream on the cake just dont look red enough...

I delivered a set of cupcakes this afternoon...was supposed to be red, but I guess, not red

enough.

.

but hey, look on the brighter side...at least you dont stuff so much colorant into your digestive system!

Smooch!!

Sexy red lips and cute hearts...these were created esp for Chip and Chut (cute names kan....), to celebrate their 1st annivesary.

Was so 'proud' that the lips and hearts turned out like how I wanted them to be.......however, little did I know, that it was too heavy for the buttercream and it slid off during the short drive, when I delivered them :-(( sighhh......My apologies chipnchut...I hope u still enjoyed them cuppies despite the 'displaced' hearts and lips.

Hearts.....and more hearts!!

Some cupcakes I did for Valentine's Day.

Pink, Red and Pastel Purple hearts for Regina. Vanilla Choc Chips cupcake topped with buttercream.

Some of Lydia's cupcakes. Choc chips and carrot walnut. All topped with buttercream.

Something special for Shuki.........from Pius

Thank you guys...hope the cuppies made some difference to your Valentine's day celebration this year!

On the other hand, I would like to apologize to some people whom wish to place an order for Valentine's, but turned down. Next year k? and place your order early to avoid disappointment.
