Miniature Cake Decoration Workshop

There were a group of ladies who came to my humble house for a miniature cake decoration workshop.

They were all very new to fondant work but they did a great job in the workshop. They had decorated 2 cakes to bring home and here’s their work:

   

These are the wonderful ladies who did a great job in their work:

And I think they had a great time too!

Happy 6th Birthday!

It’s my eldest gal birthday. We were supposed to have a birthday party for her, but since we went for Japan trip last month, we decided to use that as her advance birthday trip, hence there won’t be any party.

However, birthday is a time where children enjoyed the most with nice cake and great fun. So, I had baked her a cake for her to bring to school to share her joy with her classmates.

We had a discussion on the cake on how to design it, she threw in her ideas and she wanted a 2-tiered cake. Her class is very small only, only 18 students and probably 20 pax including the teachers, hence to make a 2-tier cake seems too much for her, however, I still baked it for her, a 2 tiered cake.

Here’s the cake and the decoration and design are from her:

Top of it:

I think I did the writing badly. It’s so ulgy. There’s a distorted patch, it was due to an “accident” when I placed the figurines on top.

These figurines were from Japan. Found it to be very nice when I was in Japan, hence asked her if she wants it for her birthday cake.

Hope she like the cake and hope that she have a blessed and joyous birthday.

Gal, be a good girl and behave yourself, you are a big gal now!

Icing image sheets

I’m so happy. Today I went to buy some ingredients for my ping pi mooncake and was surprised to find some icing images for small cake. Here’s the images I bought:

  

I considered these quite cheap as it’s only about RM9 for 2 images! If I’m not wrong, some places are selling $11 per A4 size of icing sheet if you ask them to print for you.

Cake Decoration Advanced class

Recently, I had just completed a cake decoration advance class. This class was more on piping skill to pipe various animals and flowers. These are what we done in the class:

There are more, but I didn’t take the pictures as my hands were often oily from the shortening . However, there was a final test to decorate a 10″ cake with fresh cream and also have to display our skill on piping the roses…. The cake you see in above and the roses are my final project.

Blackforest cake again!

Strawberry Cake

I had a busy weekend last weekend. I wouldn’t be so busy if I hadn’t forget that I have a class on Monday!

On Saturday, I did a Strawberry cake for my boss. She wanted it for her sister’s birthday, so I did. It was a 12″ cake and I quite like the simple and yet cheerful design:
