Wedding Gift

Life is more meaningful when you have thoughtful friends! The cake is ordered as a wedding gift by the school friends of the bride..very thoughtful kan...

This cake travelled all the way to Kota Belud last saturday, during heavy rain! I was worried that the decorations would sag and turn soft..saw the picture posted by one of the bride's friend..huhuhu, my butterflies lied flat on the cake! It has been raining everyday in KK. I feel sorry for some people who were decorating wedding cakes during last weekend. Must be very challenging..wet weather is a no friend of fondant cake..everything would turn shiny, sticky and saggy..yikes!!

Dear Fui Fui and friends, this is how the cake looked like when I handed it over to Fui Len (waaah, even your name rhymes ooo, Fui!)

Thanks Ladies

Donna's Blackberry

I heard you guys had fun....Happy Birthday Donna.

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!

Dun want too sexy!

Hahaha, dont be fooled by the topic of this post!

Dun the birthday boy, obviously, has some naughty female colleagues..... The instruction I received was, something sexy, but not too sexy...

...am loving my flowery stamps....:-)
