Cupcakes and A Christening Cake.

It has taken me a while to write this post as blogger has been playing up on me. It is still not co operating but hopefully my photo's will show up!

I made some cupcakes for a friend who was hosting an Australia's Biggest Morning Tea for her office. Vanilla and chocolate sponge cupcakes with vanilla buttercream swirls and fondant flowers.





A little baby who attends the same playgroup was being christened at the weekend and his mum asked me to decorate his cake. His great grandmother baked a delicious fruit cake for me to decorate.




Enjoy the rest of the week, we are having very cold and wet weather at the moment, so lot's of indoor time in front of the fire.

Mia & Riley's Christening Cake

Again my poor little blog has been neglected. I have had a small break from making cakes so not a lot to post about. The past weekend I made a gorgeous combined christening cake for a brother and sister. It was a challenge to put together something that suited both a boy and a girl, a 2 year old and a baby. The cake was white chocolate mudcake with white chocolate ganache and fondant covering. I made the doll and the train from modelling paste. The swag around the cake was also made of icing and provided a lovely finishing touch to the cake.






This week I am in party planning mode, Oliver is turning 5 this weekend. His party is an "Emergency Services" theme, as he is fascinated by fire engines, police cars and ambulances. He did have a fire engine themed party last year, but insisted on a similar theme this year. I had to take a step back and realise that is all about him!!! I also have another 9 cakes to do between Thursday and Tuesday, so I will be a busy little bee in the kitchen. I will have a very long post next week, showing you all of the photo's of my creations. 

Enjoy your week.
