Our First Wedding

So there was a wedding this weekend, and hey-ho, it was our first bride-groom client! We were mighty excited and made these for them. Weeee~

Here are the hantaran cupcakes. They're turquoise and purple with hints of silver to follow the wedding theme colours and they're inspired by traditional Malay wedding ornaments. We have the compulsory "Tepak Sireh" in the middle, escorted left and right by the traditional attire for Malay bride and groom. Then we have, below the Tepak Sireh, the groom's headgear or "Tanjak" and the traditional Malay weaponry, "Keris". The four damask designs bordering the rest of the cupcakes mimics a "Songket" design pattern up close.

Makes you want to get married everyday now, doesn't it?




The 2-tier wedding cake was a turquoise gradient rosette strawberry cake and a purple gradient ruffle cake, adorned with silver orchids.

The best part of the cake (as is many other things), is the 'soul': 4 layers of strawberry cake with whipped strawberry French cream (that tastes just like strawberry ice-cream!) and 4 layers of dark chocolate cake with Oreos cream cheese Swiss meringue buttercream.

Phew! That was a mouthful, oh, and, so is the cake!

Somewhere Over the Rainbow Cupcake

So we made rainbow cupcakes and tried it out with our new creamy French Buttercream and finished it. So we baked again and again, we finished it. 

It took all the strength of a chilled marshmallow fondant not to gobble down the third batch.

Here are two of them, standing there looking so buttery, light, sweet, colourful, and oh-so-magical!

RM 4 each, they come in boxes of 16s. Love-urr-ly!

Hi there! 
We had the privilege to host Uwais' Transportation themed birthday party last weekend, at Yu Kids Island at the Curve. 

Here is a photo of the wonderful spread of Uwais' candy buffet:





Individually-wrapped mineral water bottles were part of the gift pack for guests to take home:

 All cutleries, napkins, cups and placemats were also designed exclusively by us:



We also had fun themed framed signs all over the party, as well as hard hats, cones and toy trucks to complete the scene:


Food for the hungry ones were fried macaroni, mashed potatoes with bechamel sauce, sausages, nuggets, candies, chocolates, and more candies and chocolates!




And this, was the birthday cake. A whole tier of yummy chocolate cake with Oreo swiss meringue frosting in fondant.



We had so much fun! Can't wait for our next party! Beep, beep~
