Shoes with a Red Sole: The Gina M

Another rainy day (did you know Sydney got hit by a freak hail storm late yesterday afternoon?!). Thank goodness it was a beautiful day up to that point for all the ANZAC day celebrations (of course, I made some ANZAC biccies too) and march. And so, the temperature dropped about 10 degrees today and it was definitely...

Lemon Meringue Cake

nom nom nom. Italian Meringue and just a little torched. Urgh.... it's probably like liquid gold through the Sydney Storm. But I wouldn't know... I gave it away :( ...

Red goes Faster

Have you ever heard of the saying that red cars drive faster? It's become a bit of a little joke between my circle of friends ;) For the record, no, there is no scientific proof of red being faster at all!

A French & Aussie themed Engagement

Cake designed by the beautiful bride-to-be. A mix of Australian colours and French done with flowers and ribbon. I'm yet to try gigantic gumpaste flowers but I think I want to try this soon! ...

And I thank my friend in retail for helping me out! Repeat customers make...

Easter Saturday: Another wet Easter

Ah... such a shame about the wet weather over Easter this year. It's been really unfortunate that the last 8 or 9 Easters in the last 10 years have been wet. I'm sure many events are a washout but cake always brightens the day. This was a special order Extra Large White Chocolate, Coconut and Raspberry Cake. Delivered...

Under the Sea: Octonauts

Sometimes when you're at your limits, you perform at your best. This has been one of the longest short weeks to date. At the office till 1:30 AM certainly doesn't help and it really really takes it out of you. I'm pretty sure the next day passed in a long daze. Octonauts. Can't say it's the most popular kid's...
