Christening cake for a baby girl

This is a very cute one. I shall say I am very proud of it as well. Every ocassion calls for a new opportunity of being excited in crafting a new Specialty Cake that I would be proud of. This is one of those exciting ones that made me think of simple yet elegant, pretty yet delicate because it is for a baby's event!!
The one who ordered, Lilian already have a photo which she would want me to copy but I had to explain that I Do Not Copy designs. I always have my own design and if Incase, I use photos for inspirations, I make/create my own version. Although, to be honest I was inspired by the photo that she sent to me so I made a very cute pink baby boots/shoes as a topper, and the butterfly from another cake...so I made small butterflies and it looks like flying around a pretty cake. Check out my craft!

Jack and the Neverland Pirates

This is an exciting one! I was waiting for the moment to do this kind of cake. It's a big challenge for me to make a boat on a cake, i figured to make a pirate island cake and a treasure chest since there's 2 orders of cake for this party and cupcakes. (I have declined making cupcakes but i did try to finish all of it on time for the birthday party)

The feedback is positive for the design, but it was a sweet chocolate cake recipe....at this time I am trying various recipes for a chocolate cake which would taste lovely but not that sweet.

Check out the specialty cakes...

Hello Kitty specialty Cake

A birthday cake for Baby Lian's 3rd birthday party. Prepared overnight. I wanted this cake to look like a castle cake but I don't want it to look similar to the one I made from my previous princess cake order. So it may look like a castle but not really...just unique!! Creativity wise...no two cake design should look the same, it defeits my purpose of customizing the cakes for each individual.

Princess cake

A simple cake yet very pretty. It's a rush order. I accepted the order on Tuesday evening for Thursday party even if I have a scheduled order for Saturday and Sunday. My prepping time was moved or actually removed. But because I wanted to make a child happy and see that her cake is a special cake made for her, a princess cake...i accepted the order without second thought.

It's a happy day!

My grueling weekend is over. 2 sleepless nights.. Total of 3..from last Thursday.. Now i know why other crafters charge for rush orders..I accepted a rush order and didn't charge "rush order fee"(...and it's a good mistake cause i know now what to do next time) It was difficult because I already have a schedule for the weekend, 1 on Saturday and 3 on Sunday... Ouch!! i shall say.... But guess what??? I am so very pleased i worked it out just fine!!! My craft i still very impressive and I am always surprise to amaze myself...What I achieve everytime is something money couldn't buy, but I am so blessed that it is something I could share and make other people happy with my creativity. Of course i charged the orders, but my happiness is different especially if I get a positive feedback from those who ordered the cake and see the final product.

... Will upload the cakes I did the last few days.. Big smile on my face now :)

Mickey mouse cupcakes ...added more photos

Latest creation I made. My husband's colleague ordered 80cupcakes... As a hobbyist my specialty cupcakes and cakes are quite cheap compared to the prices in the market/commercial establishments... I was obliged to buy 38pcs cupcake stand for this order because i wanted my cupcakes to stand out in the party..don't want it to be just the usual cupcake you eat everyday. I was very happy and proud of myself even if I haven't slept for a few days lol! It's because i work best at night and my creativity is at its best that time. ;)
