Unicorns, Vanilla, and Friends

We have a LOT of young mother's as clients and the most regularly discussed upon topic for their 1-year-old's birthdays is whether to have a party or not. They love their little heroes, and want to spoil them rotten, but having one might not be the smartest thing to do for one who won't even be able to tell the colour of their brightly-coloured cake whilst the "no-party" option would deem them mums-from-hell.

So, together with our sister company Kawan Kawan Pictures, we have come up with the perfect solution for your mummy dilemma.

The idea is simple: have a mock party and have it photographed!

Yes, you heard us right, mock party.

So whether you're thinking of a Pokemon-themed birthday party for your little ones or an intimate picnic party for a couple's shoot, THIS is an offer you won't want to miss.

All you have to do is to let us know what your theme is, and we'll do the rest for you!

It really is, that simple.

All additional details are on this poster:


Now, excuse us please while we bite into a toffee macaron.

Sweetness.

Eid-ul-Fitr Promo

It's that celebratory time again, folks! The team at Unicorns and Vanilla wishes you a very merry, happy Eid-ul-Fitr! And to make it even sweeter, we have come up with the following promotion, just for you, our beloved friends and family:


Our cookies for lack of a better name suited for it, is called The Large Chewy simply because they are huge at approximately 4 inches in diameter of gooey chocolate chips, deep caressing vanilla flavour and salty butter goodness! Our normal price for these bad-ass yumsters are RM 2.50 each, but are now selling for RM 2 each.

Our macaronnage has begun and it's an adventure we wouldn't want to go on alone! There are a variety of flavours and combinations to choose from, and they go at RM 2.70 each at a size of approximately 1-1.5 inches in diameter. Wowzers!

Also, home-made is the new store-bought and at Unicorns and Vanilla we prefer food made from the heart, with love! Oreo cookies are a heaven to have at home and at RM 10 per 100g, you'll be begging for more! No preservatives, no artificial colourings or flavourings, these cookies are your best friends for nights-in and rainy days. 

Be sure to stock up, and have a wonderful, fantastic Eid, everyone!

A Monster Cookie

Don't you just love novelty items? 

Now how about a personalised Sesame Street birthday party to relive that 80s favourite? And what better to complete it with a character cookie like this one?

A cookie of a Cookie Monster for a monster of cookies. Wouldn't that make for an awesome party?
The cookie itself is traditional English butter cookies, with a 4-inch diameter! You can opt for different sizes and shapes, though, to suit the sizes of your guests' hands.

Cookies also available in other characters for other TV shows, cartoon characters or fairytale princesses and ogres alike.

A Pinkish Kinda Day

There were two weddings; two hantaran trays needing two pink cakes. It was a heroic Unicorn to the rescue.

The first is a pink version of The Light Dreamer Cake. See here for the original vintage blue one.


And the other, The Peony. A very simple cake that exudes sophistication in its highest level.


Both of these are Swiss meringue buttercream based and holds well unchilled for a few hours, so whilst the elders discuss the details of the beautiful life you're about to build together, your cake can stay as pretty and presentable on its dulang for everyone to see.

A Spanish Princess

We made two very simply-decorated cakes this week; one, a princess cake for little 8-year-old Aina, then a basic red velvet with a blackboard paper banner for Mateo, a Spanish tutor. 

Sorry the pictures are a bit funny looking, don't know what happened there and can't find the original anywhere! But, you get the idea...

Chocolate Chips and Friends

Two delectable desserts we love! 

We had a little extra time on our hands, and due to our obsession with FRIENDS the series, this entry and the two goodness coming your way is dedicated to Joey Tribbiani. Hehehe.

Introducing, yummy buttery chocolate chip cake with a layer of Oreo's and topped with dark chocolate brownies. Comes in plain or covered in chocolate ganache. 


And its counterpart, the Double Chocolate chip Cookie Dough Cake; two layers of moist chocolate cake sandwiching a thick dollop of chocolate chip cookie dough and French buttercream. 
How you doin'?
