School fete

I've been put to a challenge this year by being involved in running the cake stall at my son's school's spring fete.  Two other wonderful and very supportive moms were behind planning and running this cake stall, and plenty more parents who donated their time selling cakes and sweets during the day. Above is the cake I donated for the big day.

Will & Anh's wedding

Posted by Jen at 3:04 AM 0 comments

There's nothing sweeter than to know that two people very much in-love are getting married.  They've been together for many years, and they got married on a beautiful spring day in September of this year.

I'd be honoured if I could help in any way in my family member's big occasions, and one way I knew I could do good would be to make a wedding cake. So I was very thrilled that I could do it for my brother Will, just like how I contributed and made my brother Tristan's and Melinda's wedding cake last year.  We made plans months ahead, and Anh and Will gave me detail descriptions on what to have on their cake - like the yellow ribbons, cascading flowers and the very cute 'Romeo & Juliet' inspired cartoons Will drew of themselves.  However, a few months just before the wedding there became a slight change in plans, and I couldn't make their cake that week prior to the wedding.  Thankfully, they both agreed that I could still help by making their cake topper, and we'd get someone else (Cupid's Delight) to bake their cake.   

Anh and Will, congratulations to both of you! Wishing you a wonderful beginning, and love to last a lifetime.  Wish you too a lifetime of happiness and fun-filled adventures.  I'm very happy for both of you and love you very dearly!

love,
Jen

Baby shower cakes

I had a couple of requests for baby shower cakes, and they were both fun to make. One is for someone who clearly knows they're having a boy, and the other is keeping the gender a surprise. Congratulations to both happy couples!

Pink baby shower

Posted by Jen at 12:33 AM 0 comments
Julie's having a girl! What are little girls made of? Sugar and spice, and everything nice of course! Let's think pink from now on!  My good friend, who's expecting in a few weeks, had a fun baby shower made to pamper girls well - a relaxing massage and beauty treatment.  Now, that's nice!

Little Mermaid

Posted by Jen at 7:13 PM 0 comments

Ariel the Little Mermaid is one of the Disney Princesses, which also include Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Pocahontas, Belle, Mulan, Jasmine and the most recent addition Tiana.  I think my favourite is Snow White, because she was in the very first movie I saw in a cinema.  From memory, I was probably less than five years old then, and I can still clearly remember sitting in the cinema and listening to the seven dwarves sing "Hi ho."  Ariel is cute and lovable too, just like the rest of the princesses.

Baby pink & white

I was thrilled and honoured to make Aoife's cake since meeting hermom.  She requested for baby pink decorations for her beautiful baby girl.  Baptism took place on a perfect and bright day, and Aoife looked very cute in her special baptismal gown.

Gogos Crazy Bones Cupcake

Posted by Jen at 7:56 PM 3 comments
My eldest had been asking me for almost a year now when was he going to have his birthday party with his friends in school, for month after month there was someone else celebrating a birthday but never him. We loved talking about what birthday theme he would have in a year's time, and I was pleasantly surprised that he could wait that long. Although, there was one time he said to me that he'd like to celebrate it at any random month!  Finally his birthday month had come, and I was thrilled to come up with what to surprise him and his little friends.
The boys went bowling, and they were joined too by the Gogos Crazy Bones gang - Mosh, Tremi to name a few I know.  I knew very well these cupcakes' designs would certainly tickle them crazily!

This was for the 3rd birthday of an adorable and sweet little friend, who I was told loves the colour pink and loves playing with an imaginary family of pigs - papa, mama and baby pigs. Oh, how cute!
