FOOTBALL BOY CAKE

I was asked to make a 10 inch round cake for a 7 year old boy with a football field and plastic football players.......... as by now everyone knows me.......I NEVER make anything easy for me or simple. I just had to do something more creative....... so I surprised the big birthday boy (of course with his moms permission).

I made a boy playing football, out of chocolate cake and buttercream icing covered with fondant.





The smile on my face grew bigger and bigger (like the one on the cake) as the boy was coming together.
There was the background field covered with green chocolate, the color of his outfit was taken from his schools sports uniform and the football was a piece of cake as well.

When he saw the cake......his eyes were as big as the football. All the kids at the party only spoke about the cake till it was in their stomachs.

It was all worth the effort.......(my new motto)

I LOVE MY JOB      :-D

The Lovely Victoria Spong

Today another day of bliss...baking of course... I made the ever so lovely Victoria Sponge.
This order was given to me by my friend. She had a corporate tea party at her place...she wanted to do something different...
Oh! and I was invited too.... :-D
Her place is just so beautiful, with flowers everywhere and light pastel colors of her furniture and decor...
This cake was just the right choice...
I filled strawberry jam in it and dusted it with sugar... it was SO moist and spongy...yummmmmmmy

Everyone there had more than one piece...well...me too...hehehe

But all in all...it was the perfect tea party ever....

Bowling Themed Birthday Cake

Hello everyone!
It has been a long long time since I blogged.... Well first it was christmas, then holidays (and what a lovely time we had), then all the winding up....all this does take time....

But good for me my cake orders were pouring in....
Made loads of birthday cakes and christmas cakes....and all were one of a kind.

This one was made for a boy who turned 6 and had a party in a bowling alley...so his mom asked me to make a chocolate cake with a bowling theme for him.

It was great fun making it and the next day his mom told me that everyone were so pleased with the cake and her son was thrilled.

Well...all the hard work paid off.


Hope you like it too.
