Fondant Cake Decorating: More Cakes!



Here's a quick update of 4 more cake photos!
Grrr.. I have so  many cake photos on my camera, but no time to
upload and watermark them yet.  The day job hours are still really long.

I'll upload more soon!


 Here's a baby bum cake, the cake design was inspired by a onesie that'a already been 
bought for the baby.  Luckily I had similar dinosaur cutters I could use and just slightly modify,
or it would've taken hours to custom cut all the dinosaurs!

This is a birthday cake for a girl with four of the Disney characters.  She wanted the
cake to be colourful so this is what I came up with.  Not too girly :)


This cake was made for Stacey Johnson's new book launch event.  Stacey wanted an edible 
replica of her book on top of the cake, I threw in some other elements.. the collar of her shirt she's wearing
in the book cover, and her name in braids.  She's a hair stylist and author.

Fondant Decorating: My First Cupcakes!

Hey everyone!

So it's actually been two years since I've made my very first fondant cake.  I didn't really expect to enjoy baking and cake decorating so much, and making so many cakes after the first one.  But I enjoyed it so much, it just kept going and it all snowballed from there.  I want to share with you all my previous cakes and cupcakes I've made.  So here is the first set of cupcake photos from my first year of baking.

Fondant Cake Decorating: Anniversary Cake!

Hey everyone! This is my first time editing my cake photos and a video clip together, took me a while and it's definitely not something I'm familiar with.  Hope you guys like the video and the cake!




Let me know what I can do to improve my videos :D

Winnie the Pooh Cakes!


Winnie-the-Pooh is one of the most popular cake theme requests I get.
Here are some of my past Winnie-The-Pooh themed cakes!

All these Winnie-The-Pooh cakes were designed by me :) They gave me the freedom
to do anything I wanted. 

This was had a request for "Batman hugging Winnie-The-Pooh", it sounded tricky, 
I really didn't know how to mesh the two together, I made Batman more cute looking 
and the two looked like they belong together now hehe.

This cake was originally a basketball, but with some sort of mix up with dates, they then
asked me if I can change the basketball into a Winnie-The-Pooh themed cake.  After some
carving here and there, I turned the basketball into a pot of 'hunny'.

This one was ordered from a guy for his girlfriend. He wanted something with purple,
some flowers, and Winnie-The-Pooh.  So I decided to make him inside a jar
of honey, with red flowers on the bottom.  I like adding bumble bees on twisted wires.


This was for a 100th day birthday for a baby  boy.  He was born in the year of the tiger, so I had
Tigger on the top center and a little larger than the other two edible figurines.  The cake had to feed 80+ people so I made a 3 tier cake.  I wanted to build a scenery out of the 3 tiers, 1: sky, 2: the forest and 3: the ground. 


This was for a baby girl's 1st birthday party.  I decided to make a giant 1 (I'm not a fan of the number candles).  I rarely use black letterings for kids' cakes but I thought with the strong pink, green, red and yellow, the black popped out really well.  It also ties in with the black from the bubble bee and Pooh's facial features drawn by a black edible marker.



This is one of my favourite cakes I have made.  The mommy ordered this for her son's 1st birthday.  She asked me to do any design I want, as long as it's colourful and vibrant.  I decided to create a honey comb with bees all over (the bees on wires really added to the cake!).  I also added most of the Winnie-The-Pooh cast.


That's all, I hope you guys like my Winnie The Pooh cake designs! :)

One of my favourite 3D sculpted cakes I've made to date!




It's a 3D sculpted Winnie The Pooh cake, the lady had asked for something colourful,
fun, with Winnie the Pooh theme, so this is what I came up with.
It's Piglet and Pooh with a giant pot of hunny, and they're trying to get
hunny onto the slice of cake!
