Not nearly as extravagant as the french pastry chefs and the traditional french wedding cake but pretty good for a very very first attempt! Although did burn a couple of fingers in the process. Ouchy! No pain, no gain, no hard lessons learnt! Definitely won't be making the same mistakes twice...

Would love to try making a larger version of this! Too bad these towers don't last a long time (they are quite perishable as the pastry becomes soggy) so very exclusive for us to make... :)

We've had a pretty productive weekend here. Dished out a couple of yummy moreish cakes and experimented with a lot of new things. Even dabbled in some sugar art from toffee to delicate flower making.

Had our kitchen smelling awesome and then some!

Lots of prep work for our next big things over the weekend, huge three-tier wedding cake! so we spent a very relaxing morning doing some sugar art and making petals for peonies like the one below. productiveness = time well spent without the stress, and we spent our time well this weekend!

We've been pretty busy at Wynwyn's lately (on top of our other job!). And we're taking it one order, one week at a time. And we still get time leftover to enjoy the sunshine and weekends.

It's Sydney Good Food Month and there's heaps out there. Gave the noodle markets a miss this year but we're definitely going to try out at least a couple of Sugar Hits! Yum yum!

So our latest project is for a birthday boy who likes to go to the gym. And we were commissioned to make the yummiest vanilla bean, macadamia and strawberry cake. So we set to work and came up with this creation below. With all those weights to lift, am sure they can have as much cake as they want!
