What to make when you don't know the sex of the baby? Yellows, Oranges, Greens and use as secondary colours pink and blue!

Owls are cute... and meaningful! There's a little bit of a hidden motif in that the new parents will be up like night owls with feedings and whatever else is involved with a new baby! The pastel colours are so pretty.

The little flags would possibly have worked better with a taller cake but still flows~

Would have loved to  be there to cut this one! Marble mud with one of our best batches of white chocolate buttercream. Light, fluffy and delicious!

Good luck to new mum-to-be Belinda!


I still remember all those years ago when it was 21st after 21st every weekend. And the years may go by but people will always celebrate this rite of passage.

This weekend was no different and we made mini cupcakes (red velvet and dark chocolate peppermint) cupcakes and an awesome two-tier dark chocolate peppermint cake for a Christmas in July themed 21st.

It was a huge hit! Very pleased with our little fondant figurines: the christmas tree with the gold star, jolly santa claus, rudolph and of course a snowman! Lots of fun to make and am sure they attracted lots of attention on the night!

The matching mini tree cupcakes and snowflakes helped feed the crowds too :)

Please contact us for your next birthday, event or special occasion. We'd love to hear from you and help make it a special day!






This one's super special and close to home. For our grandmother who is 95 today. Lots and lots of love with this one!

July's one of those months that sneak up on you. Winter comes in full force. And it's nippy and fresh in the mornings. It's probably not the best season for fresh produce (fruit for cake making is pretty expensive in comparison to summer) and you learn to make do. It is also a month that starts the 'birthday season'.

Have quite of few of those coming up...!

This cake involves quite a few processes. Making red bean paste requires patience - soak, boil, strain, puree, cook, chill. And there are a few delicate steps with mousse as always.

Anyways, the initial green tea mirror that I had for the top layer... it didn't look so good. Matcha powder isn't exactly going to win any prizes for a good looking colour. In fact, its pretty dull and ugly. So had to improvise and redo it with a lot less matcha and a little green food colouring. This resulting in a much brighter colour but a lot less flavour in the mirror glaze.

But what was lacking there, it was made up for in the double layers of mousse. I'd like to try it with black sesame next time!


Oh yeah, not noted anywhere on the cake but... it was also partly for Justin who is 26 tomorrow. ;) But no candles or song!
