Unicorn Finding 3 | On To Baby

Have you heard of On To Baby? 

If you haven't, and are expecting a little one soon, just like we are, you really should.

It's packed with creative DIY-able ideas from how-to-design-nurseries, unique baby shower themes (our personal favourite when it comes to inspiration!), children's parties as well as maternity photoshoots that will leave you feeling calm, elated and drugged (in the best way!).

Packed with beautiful photos such as the following, you'd be sure to be glued to the screen for hours on end. 

Be sure to have a hot lemony drink and some sugar cookies on the side to complement your viewing pleasures. 

Pastel Peony in Pink

We made a similar design here, but we think this simpler version takes the cake (hahaha!) when it comes to fresh, vibrant and sophisticated elegance.

What more can we say.

Summer Breeze Birthday Cupcakes

Yes, it's hot. 

But we like to look at the bright side of things. Like Summer-y colours and flowers and fresh homemade lemonade.

Oh, and not to mention, these pretty little cupcakes we made for Along's birthday. 

Now, that, is hot. Even if we do say so ourselves.

Fashionista

It was an eventful couple of weeks when we found out we were expecting for the first time (yay!), which did not come without its fair share of every morning sickness symptom ever recorded. We therefore apologise for the lack of updates.

But we're bouncing back again, and here, we present you, a collection of fashionista-themed cupcakes, for a special friend of a special client of ours.

It was so much fun to do and we were really glad to hear how much the girls enjoyed their celebration.

There were so many tiny details put into and onto each element, and the set of cupcakes came with a display of make-up, perfume bottles, handbags, and framed-photos of the birthday girl, all made of fondant and wafer.

Let us know what you think.

Black, White and Gold Rocky Road

One of our closest friends was getting married and we couldn't pass up the chance to create these beauties for her hantaran gifts for her husband. The wedding theme was black, white and gold (oh-so-classically romantic!) and we got to working on these black velvet cake and cupcake set. The main cake was covered with a rocky road marshmallow fondant, with a glistening gemstone crystal effect, topped with a handmade black and white peony with just a tint of gold on the tips of the petals. 

Sorry, we went a little picture crazy with this one. Enjoy!

Rustic Glam Wedding {D + M}

We had the pleasure of designing a wedding cake, croquembouche and homemade marshmallows for Diba and Mahathir's "Rustic Glam" wedding over the weekend.

The wedding was ah-ma-zing-ly beautiful, set at the Lake Club in Putrajaya. Kudos to the bride and groom for braving an outdoor reception in this unpredictable Malaysian weather, but they managed to pull it off flawlessly!

Photos of the yummies, if you please:

Diba wanted a twist to her cream puff flavours, so the couple opted for a half lychee and half pandan creme anglais filling for the croquembouche.

The homemade (no corn syrup) marshmallows were dipped in melted dark chocolate and chopped almonds and pistachios.

The 5-tier wedding cake was a sweet take of the bride's favourite green tea and strawberries cake by Lanka, a Japanese bakery based in London.

Mother's Favourite Flower

Zarina ordered some 150 cupcakes and a cake for her mother's birthday, falling of which coincidently on her wedding day. Zarina and her father planned it as a surprise as they know her mother would be too busy to prepare anything special on that day for herself. And so the guests of Zarina's solemnisation, attended by close family and friends were treated to some chocolatey goodness made especially by us. 

It was the sweetest sentiment, and we were more than happy to oblige to the order, even though our schedule was cramped with the following week's wedding cake preparations. 

What we wouldn't give to see the smile on her mother's face!

Rayyan the Lion's Roar-ing 1st Birthday Party
